Director Zach Cregger named Christina Hendricks as his ideal choice to portray the character Lady Dimitrescu during a recent interview with Pedestrian TV. The casting idea emerged while Cregger promotes his own upcoming feature based on Capcom's survival horror franchise.
- Christina Hendricks is known for her acting work in Mad Men and Good Girls
- Lady Dimitrescu originally appeared in Resident Evil Village and was portrayed by Maggie Robertson
- Robertson won a Best Performance award at The Game Awards for her portrayal of the character
- Cregger's new movie features an original story with Easter eggs instead of game protagonists
Hypothetical Casting Choice
There are no active or concrete plans to adapt Lady Dimitrescu into a film project. Cregger offered the suggestion purely as a hypothetical scenario during the interview.
"That feels about right to me,"
Zach Cregger, Director
"Yes! Christina Hendricks. I think I would go for that. That feels about right."
Zach Cregger, Director
Upcoming Theatrical Release
The new Resident Evil film arrives in cinemas on Friday, September 18.
