She may not be wearing her classic shoulder padded uniform, but at least the classic sandwich joke is there.

It’s one of the ways to show a little more of the protagonist’s personality, a favorite of fans of the series and who, in the new version, seems to take a prominent place alongside characters like Leon (Avan Jogia) and Wesker (Tom Hopper).

The scenes also show a bit of the incident of the mansion that hides a secret bioweapons laboratory, one of the scenarios of a movie that will also be very focused on the destruction of the city of Raccoon City.
