Chris Redfield is portrayed by Wentworth Miller in the film adaptions of Resident Evil.
Resident Evil: Afterlife
In the plot, Chris will be reunited with his sister Claire when both of them are trapped along with Luther West; Bennett; Angel Ortiz; Crystal Waters; Wendell and Kim Yong in a besieged prison. In the film, it is confirmed that he will not "know" Wesker as the movies are non-canon to the games. He still, however, fought Wesker along with Alice. A bit of a back-story of Chris was released on the official movie site. He was working for a military unit when the outbreak reached Los Angeles and his team used the Citadel Correctional Facility as a command post and all but him were killed. He and the survivors barricaded themselves in the prison, safe. His team was eventually killed and the released prisoners trapped him in a cage-cell in the basement as an act of irony and he was kept there by the survivors as they felt he must be a dangerous prisoner and didn't trust him. After Alice releases him, he is reunited with an amnesiac Claire Redfield who doesn't remember him. In the end, he fights Wesker side-by-side with Claire, but is defeated by him and is trapped in a holding tank while Claire is trapped in another, leaving him desperate to get to his sister. Finally, Wesker is defeated by Alice with the help of Claire's old friend K-Mart and Alice releases him and Claire. Wesker is not dead despite Alice blowing his head open, so Claire and Chris unload their pistols into him. Wesker doesn't die so the group locks him in the room with Bennett who begs to be released over the intercom, annoying Chris so much that he shoots the intercom to shut him up. Wesker escapes but his helicopter is destroyed with a bomb planted by Alice. Chris witnesses Alice sending out a message of hope of her own to any other survivors and the arrival of a massive Umbrella force. Alerted, Chris told himself that "it's not yet over."
Resident Evil: Retribution
Chris will not be appearing in Resident Evil: Retribution. It's been confirmed by Milla that Chris is captured by Umbrella, along with Claire and K-Mart, and that they will not be present in the film.
