Resident Evil: Retribution/notes


 * The film features plot elements from Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5.
 * The characters of Barry Burton and Leon Kennedy will feature their costumes from Resident Evil and Resident Evil 4, respectively.
 * Ada Wong will wear the same costume she wore in Resident Evil 4. She will also be working for Wesker, keeping him updated on certain events including her mission status like in the fourth game.
 * Jill Valentine is portrayed as a villain just as in Resident Evil 5. Instead of being solely a follower and enforcer however, she will be more in charge than her video Game counterpart.
 * Lickers will make their first appearance since Resident Evil: Apocalypse.
 * Retribution is a direct sequel to the fourth film; the story does not jump ahead by months or years like the previous films. It starts right at the battle aboard the Arcadia.
 * In a tweet, Milla Jovovich hinted at a "gynormous creature" appearing in the movie. This has been confirmed through the teaser trailer as a giant 50 ft Licker.
 * Similar to the trailers for Resident Evil: Apocalypse and Resident Evil: Extinction, Retribution's teaser trailer is formatted similar to a commercial for another product. The teaser for Retribution begins as an advertisement for new communications technologies with a voice over (provided by Patrick Stewart similar to the trailer for Apocalypse serving as an advertisement for Regenerate and the one for Extinction starting off advertising Las Vegas).
 * The parasite Kipepeo from Resident Evil 5 will make its appearance in this film.
 * In an interview with Paul W.S Anderson, he stated that Leon and Ada's relationship seen in the game will be subtle in the film.
 * The little girl featured in the trailer is Becky, is a clone of Alice's daughter.
 * Milla Jovovich confirmed that in the movies, Leon's middle name will in fact be Scott, as it is in the games.
 * It was confimed through Twitter from Milla that Leon was a cop from Raccoon who survived the T-virus incident, however he was not the partner of Jill Valentine.
 * Alice is supposed to have a small but epic fight sequence with Chairman Wesker at some point in this film.
 * Unfinished promotional posters were leaked online ealier in summer 2012 which featured a poster of Barry, the words "Doomed" are seen above his picture. This has fans questioning Barry's fate in this installment, remembering that at SDCC 2012, Paul W. S. Anderson had said, "Really, no one is safe in this movie."
 * During the panel for Retribution at comic-con 2012, a clip was shown to the audience of about 2 minutes of the 9 minute fight sequence between Jill and Alice at the end of the film. While those two were engaed in combat, Leon and Luther were forced to fight the bad clone of Rain Ocampo, who had just injected herself with las plagas, which gave her super-human strength.
 * Alice will team up with Ada Wong in order to combat against not one but two Executioners (as seen in the Tv spot).
 * Milla tweets that the Red Queen will return if they decide to do RE6, however this would contradict with the validated IMDb cast list confirmed on the official Resident Evil: Retribution Facebook page. A glimpse of the red queen is seen in a featurette.
 * The music group "tomandandy", who performed Afterlife score, returned to score Retribution.
