Leon Kennedy actor Avan Jogia admits he hasn’t thought much about what’s to come for his character with no guarantee of a sequel in place.<\/p>\n

\n While the previous Resident Evil<\/em> movie series<\/a> from director Paul W.S. Anderson seemed to go on forever, we could be looking at a one-and-done deal for Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City<\/em><\/strong>. Filmmaker Johannes Roberts came into the reboot as a big fan of the original video game<\/a>s and sought to restart the series from scratch with a new take that better embraces Resident Evil<\/em>‘s horror roots. The result is a movie that’s much more familiar to fans of the video games, which includes characters like Avan Jogia’s Leon Kennedy stepping into the spotlight.\n <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n


\n Unfortunately, the critics have not been too kind to Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City<\/em>. Whether that’s because the video game references are lost on those who haven’t played them, or just because mainstream filmgoers just happ<\/a>en to prefer their Resident Evil<\/em> more action-heavy, many are banding together to express their displeasure in this movie. That’s not to say it’s all bad, as many longtime fans of the franchise saw it as the movie they’d been waiting 20 years to see. But what does this all mean for the future?\n <\/p>\n

\n Bad reviews won’t necessarily damn a movie’s chances of getting a sequel ordered, although they certainly don’t help. What matters most to a studio is how much money a project will be able to bring back in for them to make good on their investment. In its opening weekend, the movie pretty much fell in line with its projections, and now the studio will have to decide if it’s worth risking a worse turnout by developing Welcome Back to Raccoon City<\/em>.\n <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n If you ask Avan Jogia, he’s refusing to even think about a sequel at this time. The actor spoke about the movie and his role as Leon Kennedy in a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter, dishing on how exciting it was to suit up as a character he’d spent hundreds of hours playing as when he was a kid. When asked directly about Leon’s future in a potential sequel, here’s what Jogia had to say.\n <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

“I\u2019m a 15-year vet, so I know full well the procedures that are in place before anything happens. I think we\u2019re just happy to have a film out for the fans that represents the horror aspect of the games a little better \u2014 or just at all. So it\u2019s nice to get this film out to the people who like Resident Evil<\/em>, and that\u2019s about as far as I\u2019ve thought even though I love the Leon character. Luckily, Resident Evil<\/em> has so much lore to pull from. They\u2019re not short on story going forward, if they want to make this or make that. They\u2019ve got a rich tapestry of stuff to pull from.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n


\n If we read between the lines, Jogia is hinting that he won’t bother thinking too much about Leon’s future until he knows for sure a sequel will really happen. Still, by teasing everything else that happens with Leon in games like Resident Evil 4<\/em>, Jogia also hints that there’s plenty of directions to go for the character’s possible future. Time will tell if we will ever see Jogia back in the role of Leon.\n <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City<\/em> is now playing in movie theaters. You can read the full interview with Avan Jogia at The Hollywood Reporter<\/a>.\n <\/p>\n
