He would be perfect for Leon. Just watch him in Supernatural for proof. My kids were just saying not too long ago that Leon should be in the next one. Looks like they got their wish.

I barely watch horror movies, let alone zombie movies. my friend loves this type of movies and the first resident evil that i saw was the thrid one, and it was in theartes. After watching it, i fell in love with it. I don't see how people can critaze these movies and not others. I can't wait for the fourth movies to come out and neither can my friend.

There already shooting the movie in Alaska with Ali Larter later on when Milla Jovovich gives birth they will resume shooting the film and as for Jensen Ackles playing Leon Kennedy its true there just trying to keep it under wraps, its set to be released summer of 2011, Jason O'Mara will be back to play Albert Wesker,

I dont understand why so many people hate Resident Evil movies! This franchise is the best sci-fi movie made since Aliens. Brilliant story lines!! Amazing Actors!! Awesome special effects!! Dont forget the incredibly talented Director, Paul Anderson, who was responsible for all the other blockbuster sci-fi films under his belt. After watching the third film (RE: Extinction), I hope they continue with a fourth and even a fifth flim in this franchise. I also hope that Sienna Guillory reprises her role in the fourth film, as she is a brilliant & sexy actress.

they better not be making another movie as the first three were to say the least terrible. the first one was disgraceful i meen the actor who turns into nemesis was awful the hive is complete trash as the games have alreay explained how T-virus was spread numerous times. in two well im not going to even try to list its faults as it would take to long. and now three tied into the previous two by the most strenous link possible and then added into it phsycic powers clones and zombies leading to the worst sci-fi film i've ever seen and i've seen starship troopers 2. and it truthfully doesnt matter who they now drag from the game into this crap they call a film it cannot be saved its dead and the sooner someone puts it too sleep like the road kill it is the better.

Yah! Jensen!!! he would be perfect for Leon who is pretty much the hottest video game character ever. Either way they need to dump Mila as it is... I hate her

Who is going to be the Lead of this movie? They say Mila has signed on for the 4th one but then again they say Jensen Ackles is going to play leon .. Leon can't be a side role

Jensen Ackles would be perfect for Resident Evil 4 as Leon

I think Jensen Ackles shouldn`t be fit for the role of being Leon Kennedy and I don`t think he should play on any resident evil movie at all!!!
