The cast of Resident Evil 5 has been released. While most of the characters are not new, there will be two new characters thrown into the story. Alyson Court and Wendy Lee will be acting as Yoko suzuki and Rita, respectively. And, just to let you know, this article is not about Resident Evil : Umbrella Chronicles but about Resident Evil 5.

The main reason I'm writing this is to bring back attention to Resident Evil 5, a game that hasn't been getting the hype it deserves. So hit the jump for some speculative facts.

Last week, I had the pleasure of joining John Martone and God Len for Spoiler-San. As we shot the sh*t on all things Cowboy Bebop, we started digging around IMDB for information on the voice actors. God Len came across Wendee Lee's profile and saw that she has been cast in Resident Evil 5. So unless Capcom decides to completely change the game from this day forth, here's a list of the characters that will be making an appearance in RE5:

Alyson Court ... Yoko Suzuki
Tara Platt ... Jill Valentine
Michael Gough ... Osmund Saddler
Wendee Lee ... Rita

Richard Waugh ... Albert Wesker
Sally Cahill ... Ada Wong (voice)
James Harper ... Ozwell E. Spencer
Dan Cool ... Steve Burnside

    This guy reminds me of an actor...that I can't quite put my finger on atm. I'm a little lost here, though. They renamed Resident Evil 5 to Biohazard 5?

    Biohazard is the Japanese name for it, it will still be Resident Evil 5, they just need to change it. Also, that trailer is really, really old.

    Wait, so Saddler from Resident Evil 4 is in this game too? It is the same voice actor also (Michael Gough).

    Interesting.

    What is a minor Outbreak character doing in RE5? This can't be considered official.

    The game hasn't been getting the hype it "deserves" because Crapcom has been in the dark for longer than a while now. Either way, I'll wait to hear an official word, because that cast leaves a lot to be desired. Why would Saddler return, why does Steve need to come back, and who is the guy in the trailer then?

    I had forgot all about this game. They have been in the dark for way too long.

    I wonder what direction they're taking #5. I kind of wish for more of a mix between 4 and 3. Four felt a little too much like third person shooter, and not really a suspense-horror-thriller-adventure.

    But... Wait... No Dr. Salvador?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

    Edit: WAIT! IT'S FROM IMDB? THIS INFO IS NOT TRUSTWORTHY, THEN!

      They will most likely have someone like Dr Salvador, they wouldnt have him on the main character roster since he was just a reoccuring ganado, but he was still a kick ass take names ganado!

    Bit of an odd cast of characters, but it has to be good, and possibly include all the resident evils that have happened so far in some way
