Okay
I loved this brings back some fond spooky memroies! Thank you ROE for posting this! Charlie Kraslavsky has aged very well very very handsome man! This made my day thank you again ROE Squad!
Having just seen this, I think this may just be the single most important and detailed Resident Evil interview anyone has ever landed. The fact that you're even CLOSE to solving the Inezh mystery is absolutely amazing.
This is nothing but nostalgia coming to fruition. This is so cool to see them after 26 years.
I'm loving this! Seeing some of the OG's in one video.
This is a legendary moment in the RE community.
I also love how their shirt colors correspond with their original outfit's colors.
the shirt color is not a coincidence, the guys at the production gave them the shirts and i find this detail amazingly amusing.
it sure is :) lets hope we get that Inezh intervew too one day :)
@@jasond.valentine5931 ...and Wesker is perfect! 😎
Absolutally. This is indeed legendary. These guys were not aware but they will forever be part of history.
Same here! I love the nostalgia!!
Imagine having Barry Burton as your school principal.
"And for lunch today we will be serving Jill sandwiches"
@@CesarKuehl LOL, this best comment of this video 🤣
"Wow! What an essay!"
Oh my Cod
WHAT'S THE MATTER OUT OF INK?
Those live-action cutscenes of RE1 are still the best live-action Resident Evil we ever got.
And nobody will ever convince me otherwise.
because it was natural and no superhero stuff, just sci-fi
Agreed
@@Avrelivs_Gold yeah and because the characters actually really look like they do in the Games and not completely different like in literally every live action Resident Evil we‘ve got beside of the RE 1 Cutscenes
Most definitely! Only true fans will understand the weight of this comment and it's not nearly as cheesy as the movies with Mila!
@@Lukas-mk8so Even in the remake's their different except the remake to this one ironically enough!
They're just like their characters!
Charlie/Chris - Like a protagonist, asking questions and leading the discussion; helping it flow along
Greg/Barry - has that warm fatherly vibe, like if a ceiling was about to squash you, he'd come save you, then teach you how to avoid it
Eric/Wesker - stoic and cool, with a calm commanding voice as an antagonist hiding a bioweapon in a lab would be
A short film with these 3 would be great, especially if other cast members can be found. Other than the animations, Resident Evil has suffered a lot when it comes to the movies and shows.
So so true, they didn't let the fans down !
Agreed , yes movie "welcome to Raccoon City" earns the "Golden Turd Award" , ,
“Ya see mate, you didn’t use the Broken Shooter, that’s yer problem.”
Totally agree
I love how Eric is wearing his sunglasses like Wesker would❤
Wesker has the glasses on in real life 😎💯
He was probably asked to, just like their shirt colors.
Yeah
Debieron llamar al Wesker original para contar su historia en el futuro apocalipsico
Chris: Pero siendo ya un adulto como él BBSA
Barry: El general líder que defienden a los sobrevivientes del terror de la Corporación Umbrella liderado por la hija de Wesker
Wesker: que jamás muero en África y sus clones estuvieron ayudando que se esconda hasta la revelación de la sesión 2 de la serie de Netflix
His hair still lookin as wesker as ever too 😆
I love the fact that he actually showed up dressed as Wesker complete with hair gel and indoor shades 😎 he's basically only missing the vest 😄
all according to keikaku!😎
I had to buy the color coordinating shirts. 🤣
The characters actually look like the video game characters for sure. It's very funny and cool to see this , so cool the fact that wesker looks like wesker lol, Barry looks like Barry and Chris is looks like Chris.
If they ever do a resident evil movie, they should pay these guys to be the original voice actors .
@@andrewsaullo You are awesome for setting this all up!
His voice was all I needed.
This is a truly historic moment, not just for Resident Evil fans, but for fans of all video games. I remember years ago, the actors identities felt like mysteries but the community amazingly seemed to find them one by one. Getting 3 of them together in the same room is truly amazing.
This is legendary. They need to be celebrity guests at Comic cons.. real actors? Forget that! You guys are Icons. You're a symbol of hope. Thanks for the shirts and glasses by the way, nice easter eggs.
I'd say they are as real as any other actor
@@bombomos More so. Those three have an element of genuine personality to them, which you often can't say about "actual" actors. I mean, you don't know if they've got their masks on 😛
It's uncanny how their voices are perfect for the characters, even though they didn't voice them in RE1. When I think of Chris, Barry and Wesker, it's them.
I would not have picked Barry to be an Aussie though.
The only one that fits perfectly would be Eric’s as Wesker, maybe even Charlie’s. But Greg’s? Lol no
Lol no
So these guys did live action only. Not the lines in the game itself.
@@Shblibble tbh if I had to imagine an aussie Barry, he's perfect for it
This is way better than the celebration Capcom is doing for the anniversary. Congratulations to all the people involved and thank you.
Do they even have a celebration of the anniversary or it is another once in a blue moon OST release and a shitty poster?! Didn't see anything about RE, just that is doing awfully on the market.
@@minmogrovingstrongandhealthy they did have a celebration last year, but it was very underwhelming.
This kind of shit is better left to the fans anyway…
@@SSGrau. Yes but equally crapcom tends to ruin fun for actual community. Cancelling them out left and right.
When I was little, my mom would do my hair up like Chris Redfield's for me, I thought he was so cool! These guys are legends and are forever the greatest versions of these characters! Thanks so much for this video!
Man, I'm 17 and I played the games only recently, my first Re was Re4, the first time Installed the first game on my computer I thought that people back then really looked cool, I really like those old resident evil games and I finally know where those old Leon's animation's came from (Re2)
I tried to style my hair like chris when I was 7 too
You are the kind of person that makes me hopeful for the future, especially the future of games. I had RE back in 96, in 40, and been a huge fan ever since...one of the first websites I ever went to in 97 was an RE one...that was back when say downloading a 3mb song took 45mins!(at best)
Knowing that a young person like yourself appreciates the older games...that’s really cool. I still playand enjoy some Mega Drive games (what the Genesis was called in Ireland) like Streets of Rage or Sonic the same I did 30 years ago...I remember when GTA was an overhead 2D game!
I remember getting RE2 when it came out , same weekend because of had been saving for it, and it looked COMPLETELY different than the magazines I’d been reading for a year or so before !( look up Resident Evil 1.5)and thought it couldn’t get better than this!
Got back into gaming after a 6-7 year break and couldn’t believe how good 7 and 8 were...let alone the Remakes ...(I had a GameCube and I had Remake and 0, I urge you to play the RE1 remake if you haven’t yet, it’s incredible) ...
I’m an old cranky twat now but hearing that you dig the old stuff makes me smile. Wish you the best from Dublin mate 👍
It's sad seeing people bashing/arguing about the older vs newer games, especially if they haven't played both. They all have their great moments.
@@mccarthy5825I too remember following re2 in game magazines and being a little disappointed that re2 was nothing like I had built hype for…re2 still door but 1.5 looked so great. The blood on clothes, Elza walker, ect
32:57, if you guys are reading this. When RE released in 1996, it heavily appealed to kids who would watch horror movies. "This Game Contains Scenes of Explicit Violence and Gore" The game feels like you're playing a horror movie and it was amazing, still is. We'd never seen anything like the opening intro and we genuinely cared for the characters and their well-being. It was also a really difficult game and almost served as a rite of passage in Middle School. Staying over at a friends house on the weekend, staying up late playing RE, only the glow of the TV screen, getting terrified, ha. The gameplay is arguably flawless and because of that, it always had an audience. It's just damn fun to play and allows a variety of way to explore the mansion and get various endings. It brings back lots of great memories and people still deeply care about the characters.
There are only three S.T.A.R.S. members left now. Captain Wesker, Barry and myself. We don't know where Jill is.
Dude this 💯 haha crazy that’s exactly what’s happening right now
So accurate
the REAL Albert Wesker
I just want to say that this really cheered me up: as someone who's dealing with depression-anxiety, I rarely laugh these days - but watching this I was laughing out loud with my eyes watering.
I love what Eric, the Wesker actor, said about enjoying whatever it is you are doing because you never know how much more it may mean than you think.
These guys had no idea that they were about to help build the foundation of one of the biggest franchises in gaming. For them, it was just a side gig for some extra cash but I'm sure they are more grateful for the childhood memories they gave so many of us than getting paid. Thanks legends.
Judging by the interviews it blows my mind that these guys largely didn't know how much of an impact they've made on so many people until fairly recently. These guys and gals have informed and solidified how the characters look to this very day. I was 9 when I first played RE1. I wasn't allowed to play it because of how violent it was. My uncle would let me slip in a few sessions here and there until I beat the game. We can look back and see how cheesy the intro and ending was, but when you're 9 and all you had was a SNES: that intro blew your f'n mind. It was rad. It was terrifying. It gave me nightmares. It enticed me. Beckoned. Dared me to play this game that I wasn't supposed to play. It was perfect.
I remember Alyson Court, the original voice actor for Claire, saying she didn't know she was in Resident Evil 2 until she heard her voice in a game trailer at some trade show.
I was around the same age as well and you’re spot on. At the time it was mind blowing to have live action cutscenes, even as cheesy as they were, in a video game after we had spent years in the 16-bit era.
I was 11 when RE1 came out n had same view, seeing live action was really something back then, was cool AF and even playing the game felt like you was in a movie in ways.
@@chad1097 Think that story checks out because she approached some key people at that show, joined promoting the game more, her charisma and out-there nature helped promote the game a lot on these meet and greet trade shows.
At the time she was promoting her TV show gig being dressed as a clown and when she heard her voice got over to their setup, said she is in this game, the other people just looked at each other and was like who TF is this girl in a clown costume also is she really in this game... So after some talk etc she joined them. Later got producer credits and she was also a ''drama director'' too among other things. Sadly later on as for the rest it all went downhill with the corporate politics and with that the series too and basically everything.
Yeahh, even the contemporary versions of the characters still have a touch from these guys. Like these guys are the progenitors of the characters.
They're so cooler than the other live actors from the movies and shows, awesome reunion
They're the best! Hope too see more from them after this. And you're a legend yourself Fred, thank you for everything you've done for the community that loves the first survival horror REs, the best ones, and for finding them!
@@fistoftulkas7335 Its my pleasure
I also dig their shirts as well
Theyre more like regular people then those actors.
The actors youre mentioning are all fancy money grubbing types but these guys are older and wisen and lived regular lives.
The fact this is the cast from the original 1996 game is f'n amazing!! Back in a time where video game voice actors didn't get the recognition compared to today's ones.
They were the actors in the live-action sequence at the start, not the voice actors, but are just as iconic I feel :)
Ha! It's no wonder they'd never played the actual game. They probably just had fun doing the intro movie and made some money, and didn't think much of it over the years.
They affected our childhoods. They changed our lives.
This was a nostalgia bomb, I appreciated every second of this. RE1 was my 1st game I got on playstation as a kid and been a fan ever since. Great work on bringing them together for that behind the scenes insight.
Nostalgia atomic bomb! All we need now is Inez, Jason, and Linda and the saturation is complete.
Bro I love how you’ve included some of the classic RE soundtracks in your videos. Love the channel.
Parenting went brrr
So glad you appreciated it how important 🤮
Brother, this was one of the first games I saw played as a kid.
…You know how some people, they had a fear of dinosaurs? Maybe even ghosts? This original game made zombies my nightmare. When I was scared of the dark as a kid, it’s because I feared zombies.
That’s why this game is special to me. This institution is in my top 3 favorite game series ever made, always will be.
Someone let Greg know, he's technically everyone's dad.
The first resident evil from 1996 had such an impact on me that it made me become a military officer. I'm still a soldier, so it's safe to say you've set my path in life. And i really enjoy this path, so thank you guys!
22:09 "Have any of you guys ever seen any of the Hollywood movies?"
The actor of Wesker: "... What?" LMAO!!
It would be a lot of ease the answer, first rate cash or credit, you`ll get in there with the higher ups 7% off. LOL, in`a breeze.
The famous "NO DONT GO!" By Chris Redfield.
THIS IS THE BEST RE-UNION EVER
this is so crazy. the search for the original live actors is almost as legendary as the actors that solidified the look of these iconic characters themselves. to see it all slowly but surely come to a head at this moment is beautiful. major thanks to all of the original actors for taking the time to do this for the fans, it's really special for a lot of us.
A watershed moment for the community.
This is amazing, thank you for everyone involved in finding, reaching out to these actors and organizing this.
Seriously those guys do not even understand the impact they had on many people who grew up during that time. I grew up in Syria, and RE 1 director’s cut was the first horror game I ever played in the 90’s, and it blew my mind. I didn’t even know that games can be scary but I loved it. I loved the cut scenes those guys starred in, and watched it many times. I still love it and prefer it over the animated ones in the remake (although the remake game itself is better).
I’m very excited for this new movie and hope it succeeds and become the start of something bigger! Good luck
Same here. This game crafted my imagination for horror. It was the first intricate horror experience I could comfortably dive in. At the time as a kid this was revolutionary
DUDE!!!!....fucking awsome to see Eric Pirius A.K.A "Wesker" wear those sunglasses...this is the Wesker we want!
Answering to Eric's question. What makes the game so important at least for me, but I think we all can agree, is that Resident Evil 1 defined the Survival horror genre. Before RE, survival horror wasn't even a thing. There was this game called "Alone in the Dark", which is the prototype of what Survival Horror would come to be, but it wasn't until Resident Evil that the genre was solidified. The game required you to be resourceful, plan your next 3 moves, be smart but it was also constantly throwing you curve balls, putting you in stressful and scary situations, that created this big sense of dread that gave Resident Evil its identity and ultimately gave birth to a new genre.
Also the acting, I mean, with all due respect, it was cheesy, both live action and the voice acting later on with different actors. Its not like it was bad in a negative way, you definitely put a lot of effort and care but it was very charming, it is hard to explain.
Very few video games have the distinction of being recognized as the ones that created a new genre. Resident Evil has that distinction, just like Super Mario Brothers, Resident Evil is up there, with Super Mario, that is why this is so big, that is why people have been looking for you, because you were part of a historic moment in gaming.
For sure. The original game cemented what survival horror was - pre-rendered backgrounds, camera angles that hid the zombies from view, great sound design, lighting, tank controls, all of that stuff that made the mansion feel so immersive and real. For me it was the first time a horror game felt truly real, where your character was an extension of you, and getting eaten by a zombie was a terrifying, visceral experience.
The actors deserve credit for giving us a sense in a very short period of who the characters were, so that when they're in danger, we care what happens to them. It's also no exaggeration to say that without Resident Evil, we wouldn't have the modern zombie boom of The Walking Dead, 28 Days Later, the Dawn of the Dead remake etc. So they're not just part of the history of this huge franchise, but of an entire genre.
Imagine being Greg's neighbor and knowing all the time where Wesker's hideout was all the time until RE5 was released. Make jokes about the Umbrella corporation being next door, stuff like that.
These guys are so cool and calmed, they are discovering they have been a huge thing for years and I love their reactions to each question. They even asked what all the fuss is about, they can't believe how passionate are the fans about something they considered just another job.
I can’t believe Capcom hasn’t put this together themselves for the fans after decades of die hard fans. Resident Evil was the first true horror survival game. Such an iconic game that’s influenced hundreds of other games afterwards. Thank you RoE for putting this together! Truly amazing!
First horror survival video games is Alone in the Dark.
@@n.e.x.u.s It is neither Alone in the Dark or Resident Evil. It is Sweet Home
@@eamonha3814 What is that game?
@@n.e.x.u.s Game made by Capcom in 1985, before Resident Evil or Alone in the Dark. Has the first features of a survival horror game and is the first inspiration for a lot of other horror survivals to come after
@@eamonha3814 I think you have a right for the first step of Resident Evil developments about that game Sweet Home.
I've noticed the Original Resident Evil cast are wearing their iconic signature colors.
I met Chris and Barry here in Milwaukee at a convention called Midwest Gaming Classic.
Me and my friends was the NWO Wolfpack and we had the WCW belts and Barry thought we was actual wrestlers and approached us asking where is the wrestling event.....we was in total shocked and I was like BARRY BURTON!!
He smiled and said yes that's me. I told him the location and we got a picture with him and Chris and Barry requested another pic with him putting me in a headlock lol
They were super cool 😎 😎
I like how they are even wearing the colors of their characters
thank God for allowing me to live long enough to see these three legends together again.
I played the original resident evil when I was a kid in high school, good to see these gentlemen doing well , they sure aged better than I did
Barry literally walked right into gaming history.
I Can’t believe we had the pleasure and opportunity to see a sit down between Chris Barry And Albert they’ve aged well through all the survival horror
Wesker doesn't look like he wants to be there. Looks like he was more interested in...global saturation...
This is so cool to see these guys on the same screen together again. I was 12 in 1996 and can't even tell you how many times a saw these dude's in the game intro! Thanks for making this happen Residence of evil 🙏
Appearantly you and i are born in the same year 😎
Man as an OG RE Fan, this interview was EPICCCCCC!!!!! From the original Resident Evil's game cast members having no clue how big the Francise got is incredible lol. I feel like Capcom did them super dirty without placing the actor's last name during the end credits but thats just my opinion. That was super cool at the end when you guys all fist bumped each other for bringing them all back together for this teaser which looks SICKKKKK!!! and I hope becomes a full short fan film, was absolutely amazing 👏.
OH MY FUXKIN’ GOD!!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯😱😱😱😱😱🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 I always wonder what happened to original cast members!! ITS FUXKIN’ INSANE TO SEE THEM AGAIN!! I hope the other 3 cast members see this video!!! Idk why but this is making me tear up 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲
We finally know Where is Barry
Barry Burton hasn’t aged one bit!
As soon as this video ended I felt like shouting "NO......DONT GO!!!!!!"
しっかりS.T.A.R.Sのタクティカルベストと同じ色のシャツ着てるの好き。
I'm not even kidding, I happy cried seeing these three together. Such a massive massive influence on me growing up these games, and this is just serotonin in a video for me. Much much love
Cringey af
@@burakcoskun1865 how is it cringe did you not have a childhood or something? Weirdo
You actually cried? Like literally cried?
Omg, leave the guy alone! There are plenty of tears at every k-pop concert or football match, so why should it be different here? Heroes come in all formats and sizes, it doesn't make the experience any less valuable just because it's a video game.
Lmao why weirdo?
Also, Bravo to Eric for wearing the shades!
Holy hell, this is the most amazing thing I have ever seen in my life, you guys actually brought the original cast together...I'm just speechless right now. This game changed my life in the 90's, it's permanently imbedded into my brain, the opening video SET THE PACE of RE. Wow...I'm just star struck right now.
Seriously, thank you for this. Resident Evil was also a huge part of my childhood, and I’ve just brushed off RE: directors cut for the first time in years, and the opening cut scene is one of the best things ever put to film. I’ve also recently brought a few uninitiated friends into the RE fold, and even 25 years later, those cut scenes retain their charm.
Totally agree! I remember being a kid and playing this game, thinking how awesome it is to be playing a horror movie. I'm surprised America got the censored version. Seeing the uncut version being more bloody and in color makes me think we got cheated! Haha! I mean there were already violent games, like Mortal Kombat, in the US so I don't see why they felt the US version needed to tone down the violence. Either way, its still a classic!
This isn't an ordinary day... we're part of this legendary reunion!
Ordinary day for me
Chill
I gasped when I saw Barry! I love that they're all so humble having just done - in their eyes - "a couple of days," shooting, and yet created 3 of my favourite characters of all time. I love the colour coded shirts, and the fact that wesker not only has the shades, but a comb back hairstyle... I can almost see him now scraping it across his scalp before standing cross armed with a "I own you" bad guy look on his face. What an interview!!!
This was an incredible video to come across. Thank you so much to you and the actors for making this possible. What a treat it is to see them get some recognition now after being a part of our lives for so long.
This is so cool, thank you for putting this together, and for the wonderful actors for getting back together to do this for us long-time fans! The nostalgia is real!!
I love how Wesker kept his glasses on throughout the whole interview :) Forever bad ass :)
Greg Smith (Barry) lives less than 3 hours away from me irl, a road trip 🤣 unreal.. I had no idea Barry was an Australian!
I played RE1 back when I was 10 years old and it was my first RE game.
All those years and you guys are the best versions of those characters for me and always will be. Thank you so much!
Really recovering this cast of actors for this meeting has incalculable value, thank you very much for such tremendous work and thank you for being all here.
You guys are the heroes we never got to know! We, the fans, were left decades without any information about you. But we know by heart every dialog line you guys gave us in the original Resident Evil and it's fanstastic to be able to see you talking. You are all real, you were there, you were never just polygons. The original Chris, original Barry and original Wesker, right there! This is absolutely amazing!
They're not the voice actors though
Like Galuade MG said, they’re the actors for the live-action cutscenes, not the voice actors.
I wish they had Jill and Rebecca there also.
@@Ridley_Lockhart I believe Jill hasn't been found yet.
this is like a dream come true,never expected to see these three reunited again.
Thank you for doing this!
Resident Evil is a huge part of many peoples life’s!
It makes me so happy to know those involved are getting support from the fans!
Amazing what you accomplished. The actors are so nice in person that made me appreciate them even more. Legends that had no idea they were making history that day. Congrats on the project. You deserve and they deserve all the praise too!
Daaaamn wesker is legit !
I loved this!
Much thanks to Charlie, Greg, Eric, Andrew, and the fans who tracked them down. It was informative, entertaining, and wholesome. Those 37 minutes flew by.
Regarding Eric's question...
For me, one of the reasons Resident Evil is so captivating and memorable is largely the awe of it my first time experiencing it, and the nostalgia when I think back to seeing and playing it for the first time...
Here's this game, unlike anything I've seen or played before--a horror game--and it's absolutely amazing. My first experience with the horror genre of video games...
I was 10, and I would say everything is so much more impactful and resonating in your younger years. I guess the unfortunate thing is life has a way of making people jaded after so long...
Of course, I still love it to this day. Resident Evil 1 is still my favorite of the series. The remake of the first game is of the most beautifully atmospheric games in my opinion, and while I prefer the remade version, I still really like the original. Especially the opening that Charlie, Greg, Eric, and others are in.
Subscribed!
Thank you, all of you for this. This is special to me. I’m glad to say I was one of the first to play this game on its release and it totally blew my mind on how video games were advancing at the time. My cousins and I used to play this game in the dark with the stereo cranked up real loud on sleepovers. I still own my original copy of the game to this day in the big box before Playstation quickly switched to jewel cases early in its debut. Thank you again for making this happen. The RE community needed this.
Eric looks so cool, he's still Wesker, I love it.
Listening to Wesker is like, "Dear Class of 1999... wear sunglasses. If it's the most important thing you listen to out of all this." His voice is just awesome.
I thank the channel for bringing the actors together and bringing back such good childhood memories. I grew up playing RE and I play to this day, seeing them together is a tribute to the fans. Thank you for deciding to do this random job that was the precursor to a beloved franchise...
This is so cool! Thanks so much to everyone who did the research and clued these people in to who they are within RE. Awesome video, love that the OG cast is able to finally connect with the fans and realize their place in RE history.
This cast is a living relic. They should know their importance.
This was absolutely awesome. As a huge fan of RE since it first came out, these actors here will forever be my Chris, Barry & Wesker. I can always hear the theme and the voice announcing these characters names. This truly made my day yesterday. Thanks for all the people who put this together. I salute you 🙌👏
This is amazing, they seem as a really cool guys, loved how they even asked questions and stuff. Hope you guys are able to find the rest of the cast, that would be cool. Congrats for everyone who was searching and finally were able to find them 🙌🏼
So cool seeing the OG's and hearing their story! I find it interesting how back in those days a lot of actors took part in projects that later on became legendary and the actors just thought nothing of it until later
I wanna see the elusive Inez too. She needs to come out of hiding lol. I know Shinji Mikami didnt like Inez and thought she whined too much but maybe all that has settled and he might have some retrospection. Shinji was a loose cannon but he had vision, which is why he remade the perfection that is RE1remake.
Hey lol! Funny running into you here Saggy! Sup?
Dude you got the original cast together holllly sheeettt
Kudos!!!
It’s really cool seeing the three of them again. I spent many hours playing the original Resident Evil, so I have seen those live-action scenes many times. It’s really great seeing them back together again, all these years later.
What an absolute special reunion video to have the original cast sharing their experience. Really puts tears to such an amazing game to this day
Respekt to Eric, he got the Wesker glasses on.
We need an Interview with Inezh (Jill Valentine) and Linda (Rebecca Chambers).
Guys you really affected my childhood in a good way. I am a big fan, thanks for every beautiful moments you gave to us.
This was unexpected. I am glad this popped up in my search. I would like to see Jill and Rebecca.
Doesn’t matter how many iterations or actors play these legendary roles, these men are the real original Chris, Barry and Wesker, also, Eric’s voice sound very much like Albert Wesker.
I would have loved to see Inezh(Jill)and Linda (Rebecca) there
Rebecca and jill are already found and are not anonymous anymore. They are just uninterested into doing the project.
Wait what!!?? I knew Linda was found but Inezh!!?? Really!?? Where!!??
Eric's got a smooth and suave voice. Can't help but imagine how Wesker might sound with a voice exactly like his.
Thank you so much for making this possible, to everyone involved. This is true history of Resident Evil and I LOVE IT ❤
thank you all so much for coming back after all these years, games like this back when we were younger took us out of reality and into a fantasy / horror dream where we could let our imagination run wild and it's all thanks to your little intros and outros that brought the whole experience together , thank you STARS!
I can't get over the Wesker's shades and shirt colors for all 3.
It's like they're sharing their game character motif irl. Really nice touch.
Its crazy to think none of these guys even knew resident evil became so big until later on...its awesome how humble they are and how passionate they are about the game now. It would be great to see them all do or watch a playthrough of the game!
agree love to see thim play RE1 remake or orginal to here there voice
Thank you for doing this guys. I've been dreaming to get a reunion of the original cast for so long, I never thought I'd be able to see it. Hopefully one day we'll get to see the whole cast together!
What a feeltrip this was, Amazing to see the people you "grew up" with. from one fan to another and from the bottom of my heart, thank you!
Now to track down Jills actress.
Seeing the 3 original actors come to do this interview is really incredible and after 25 years. Can’t wait to watch The Keeper’s Diary. 🙌
For a sec there i thought u were the original Jill haha.
@@AspiePilo82 I wish I was Jill Valentine! She’s my favorite video game heroine. 🥰
@@AspiePilo82 Haha same here. She looks like Jill’s thumbnail on your in game HUD thingy.
@@jessicagomez4705 Well you got her eyes and some of the facial features haha. And yeah shes 1 of my favorite heroine. The original zombie killa. I dont have many fav. Female characters in games. But it will be her, Claire Redfield, Samus Aran, and Lara Croft.
@@leeturner8023 thats right man. Its just that the hair is black instead of brown. But yeah I had to double glance haha.
The actress has been missing and nothing is really knoen about her.
Just drop a tear watching this... Ty ROE and everyone involved in this project!!!
Been gaming for almost 40 years. RE1 is probably still my favorite game of all-time. Thanks to the actors for taking time out of their lives to make this video! You guys are as ICONIC as any video game character can get.
Original and the best of the franchise...
i really almost cried when i saw theese 3 guys , i still see them in the opening clip from 1996, im now 34, so im feeling lot of nostalgy! thanks for this gift !!
Gahhh! Just such an amazing full circle moment🥰. Thanks to all who are involved in bringing this together. Yeah, it's not the full cast but just finding one OG Resident Evil cast member is a win and just such an honor and privilege to see Charlie, Greg and Eric make a direct appearance after a good few years. I like how Eric still has the Wesker shades going lol 🙆♂ It's also interesting how just the very act of trying to track down the remaining cast members is sort of like a RE game plotline in of itself lol. There's an aura of mystery still and maybe some suspense but ultimately, I hope the other cast members are all right and if found, hope we can see them again but also respect their privacy if they so choose
This is a dream come true. These guys are absolute legends and I'm very happy that they're finally getting recognition for their role in Resident Evil. For so many years, due to the way they were credited in the game, they were such a mystery to me. Thank you for this!
I love how the cast members are wearing the exact same colors as their characters
