'That includes not just how to make the characters look but how they sound, too. 'We've reimagined what these people would look like and, while we have nothing but respect for our original cast from the original game, if we're going to reimagine everything about this story and these characters we should start from that basis for every decision,' Resident Evil 2 producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi told Newsweek in 2018.
In 2017, during the development for the Resident Evil 2 remake (out now for PS4, Xbox One and PC), it was revealed that the long-time series voice cast would not be returning to their original characters, including voice actors who have previously played Claire Redfield, Leon Kennedy and Ada Wong.
