The world of biohazard is largely clear. You have good people and bad people. The latter is in the form of both scary creatures (such as zombies and spiders) and capitalist monsters. At Umbrella Corporation.
[Ed. note: This post contains spoilers for Resident Evil season 1.]
Netflix resident evil The series takes everything you can get from the world of biohazard — with everything everything Considered the Gospel of Canon — actresses who play two of the show’s most vicious characters are delighted to feel their role mysterious to their hostility.
“That is,” misunderstood “means complexity. [for characters], right? “Adeline Rudolph, who plays adult Billy Wesker, tells Polygon.” If you ask Siena, [Agudong]Young Billy […] It’s a completely different show, right? “
For her, Elder Billy captured the promise that a television show could offer a biohazard franchise for decades of its lifespan. In the end, she accepted that Billy was a character with nuances but the only focus in the world.
“For older Billy, I think it’s definitely a story of broken heart, pain, and trauma. Survival. And the way she feels she can survive the best in this future world. “Choose”, says Rudolph. “She is very one-sided [how she sees the future] She has experienced so many things that she believes there is the ultimate answer as to how we can move forward. Everything else has been destroyed in her life. ”

“I think Evelyn’s story is in the corporate world, how to succeed and be the best in the corporate world. She wants to be the best, and she wants to be known, to be respected in the world,” Nunez. Says.

Joy’s antidepressant Evelyn, inspired by her, is moving away from biological weapons and instead using some of its evil genius to treat depression, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. OCD Especially difficult to handle The condition has no cure for the silver bullet in any of those mental illnesses. In most cases, a combination of treatment and medication is managed.
BigPharma has always been an important part of Umbrella Corporation as a whole, but Netflix’s resident evil They don’t take a bad approach to umbrellas just because they are engaged in shade practice. Rather, the entire system behind the enterprise seems to be rotten, even when they are trying to do the right thing. Billy and Evelyn represent in their own way how the system can evangelize people to keep it lasting.
“”[Evelyn] She really thinks she can change the world in a good way. Of course, she doesn’t think about the consequences, “Nunez says. “So her ego is so big that she forgets or distances herself from others, loses all empathy and makes the wrong choice.”
Not everyone making bad choices is working with the dreaded T virus, leading to an outbreak of zombies that turn about 6 billion people into carnivorous monsters. but, resident evil, There is room for the possibility that not all mistakes result from the desire to do evil (wait for it).
