The Right To Be A God… Is No longer Mine…

As I reflect on my time as Albert Wesker , I can’t help but feel a deep sense of gratitude for the journey we’ve shared. From the first time I donned the CGI sunglasses to the final odd game in 2019, every moment has been filled with unforgettable experiences and quirky memories. This post marks the end of an era for me, but it’s also a chance to say thank you—to the fans who have supported me, to the team at Capcom, and to everyone who has been part of this incredible ride.

Why I Am No Longer The Voice of Albert Wesker

My journey as Wesker in the “Resident Evil” franchise culminated with “Teppen” in 2019, marking more than a decade of bad assery and hysterical memories. My final gig with Capcom was a 2-day test performance-capture shoot in 2020 – not a game.

As negotiations for future projects did not align with our mutual goals, I have embraced the end of this era with gratitude and some relief (not sure how Wesker would sound like when I’m 80). Throughout these years, Capcom’s decisions on casting have understandably been influenced by various logistics and economic considerations, so no hard feelings here. And I did garner the title of the most RE games/years performed by an English VA as a single character!

Wesker good bye DC Douglas

A Bittersweet Resident Evil Thank You

I had hoped to craft a full-on heartfelt love-letter to this chapter after Dead By Daylight arrived, celebrating my time as Wesker and with you guys, the fans, and passing the torch onto the future Wesker (a fantastic Connor Fogarty in DBD and Craig Burnatowski in RE4). Unfortunately, due to recent events – all set in motion by one dishonest ex-fan – I’m just writing this post. (Click the button below if you want that info.)

NO, D.C. DOUGLAS DID NOT BREAK AN NDA

While every fandom has a toxic contingent (looking at you, Star Wars ), it is not defined by those bad actors and their actions. RE fans on the whole have been some of the most interesting and supportive people I’ve known. I am forever grateful to them for the fun experiences and all the love!

So, thank you for the support, the wild artwork, the warped memes, and the laughs over the years. That’s the part that lasts. That’s the real ending to my Wesker chapter.

And a very huge “thank you” to my long-time friends who RE brought into my life: Rachael, Victor, Matt, Ashley, Bekah, Maddie, Brad, Maya, Alex and all the rest!

I will always be your Albert Wesker in these games:
