* Sorry Supernatural fans – Jensen Ackles won't be playing former Raccoon City cop Leon Scott Kennedy, although the character will appear in the film.

* The Las Plagas parasite will feature.

* Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts) returns from Resident Evil: Afterlife .

* S.T.A.R.S. weapons specialist Barry Burton and agent Ada Wong both appear, with no word on casting yet.
