Resident Evil Requiem Star Hopes Grace Ashcroft Has "a Long Way to Go"

Angela Sant'Albano, the actress behind Resident Evil Requiem's protagonist Grace Ashcroft, has been opening up about her character's future in the franchise. In a candid interview, Sant'Albano acknowledged that Grace is a very different kind of hero compared to series icons like Leon S. Kennedy, saying she doesn't think Grace will "ever be a Leon character." Rather than framing that as a limitation, though, the actress seems to embrace it as part of what makes Grace's identity unique within the Resident Evil universe.

Despite those differences, Sant'Albano is clearly optimistic about where Grace's story could go. She expressed hope that there is "a long way to go" for the character, hinting at a desire to see Grace grow and evolve across future installments. It's a sentiment that suggests both the actress and potentially the development team see Grace Ashcroft as a long-term addition to the Resident Evil roster rather than a one-off protagonist.
