In the film, Claire is the stranger who goes back to her childhood town because she has a sense that something is wrong and feels a deep urgency to get to her brother, Chris, to warn him. “But when we meet Claire and Chris as adults, we notice quite quickly that something has happened between them,” explains Kaya Scodelario who plays Claire. “They find it very difficult to communicate. They don’t quite trust each other. As the story progresses, we learn they have a bond, borne through a traumatic childhood, that they’ve learnt to deal with in opposite ways. Chris joined the police and Claire has gone on the street. As we follow them, they find a way to unite and come back to each other.”

“25 years ago, I walked the dread-filled corridors of the Spencer mansion, then experienced the rain-soaked night surrounding the Raccoon police station,” says writer-director Johannes Roberts, recalling the landmark videogames “Resident Evil” and “Resident Evil 2.”  Now, Roberts calls on those memories to take his fellow “Resident Evil” fans back to the story’s roots with the new film Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City.

“I come from that generation of the first PlayStation gamers who grew up with the game, although I grew up not so much playing it but watching it. I’ve always been a complete horror freak, so watching other people play it, almost like a movie, was a big part of my student years; the specific sounds the zombies made are indelibly seared onto my soul. Over the last 10 years, I’ve become a big gamer myself and obsessed with ‘Resident Evil.’ The remake of the second game was a major turning point for me in just how cinematic games have become.”
