Dream Resident Evil Wesker Casting Addressed By Anthony Starr [Exclusive]

For those who don’t know, Albert Wesker is a virologist who worked for the Umbrella Corporation and was determined to achieve their goals no matter the cost. With a new Resident Evil movie coming out on September 18, 2026, directed by Zack Cregger, it’s likely Wesker will appear in future films. However, when asked about potentially reprising the role, actor Andrew Starr seemed surprised. He told ComicBook he wasn’t sure why people were asking and joked that his only similarity to Wesker was his blonde hair, which he’s since dyed. He also pointed out he’s 50 years old, implying he’s too old for the part, despite Wesker being only 48 in the original story.
