The Resident Evil showrunner for the upcoming Netflix series has said that Lady Dimitrescu “is an option” for season two.
Furthermore, it has also been confirmed that the series is canon. The Netflix series will also apparently explain how Wesker survived a volcano as well as Chris Redfield’s boulder punching escapades during the conclusion of RE5.
In an interview with TheGamer, series showrunner Andrew Dabb said: “Village is part of our lore. If we want to put a giant vampire lady in Season 2, we can. I’m not saying we’re going to, but it’s an option”.
However, before we all get carried away, Dabb only suggested that Lady Dimitrescu is an option and not a confirmation for the Resident Evil series.
Lady D and Barry B, please!
At this time we have no idea how this series will turn out and how its story might branch into a second season. That being said, it’s quite comforting to know that this series is at least taking the video game franchise into consideration.
Dabb also claimed that they are taking inspiration from the MCU’s form of storytelling. “That is very much how we approach this. We’re trying to be very conscious, and the games are our canon. We did not consciously violate any rules from the games, but at the same time, it’s not a direct adaptation of the games.”
