Comparison of famous characters who were in both films and video games (15 photos)

Video games are something that a long time ago became not only children's entertainment. It’s very cool after a hard day at work to play some powerful fighting game, splashing out the accumulated rage in the virtual ring.





Some games have become so cool (and it’s not just the visuals, but rather the excellent storyline) that they have become inspiration for creating film adaptations. Today we want to show you what the characters look like in games and in films based on them.

Durotan, World of Warcraft



The leader of the orc clan Durotan in the film adaptation of Warcraft, which was released in 2016, was played by English actor Toby Kebbell.

Anduin Lothar, World of Warcraft



But the Lion of Azeroth, the great military leader Anduin, was played by the famous “Viking” Travis Fimmel.

Ada Wong/ Alice, Resident Evil



Interesting fact: Alice, played by Milla Jovovich in the Resident Evil franchise, the first film of which was released in 2002, was originally based on the game character Ada Wong. Although there are no plot coincidences between Alice and Ada - these are completely two different characters. It’s just that Alice got Ada’s charisma, dynamics, character traits and red dress :)

Ada Wong, Resident Evil



Nevertheless, Ada still appeared in the film “Resident Evil: Retribution”; here her role is close to the game plot.

If we really exaggerate it, it turns out that Ada and Alice are one person. Although, of course, the filmmakers did not plan such a turn of events

Nathan "Nate" Drake, Uncharted



On February 10, 2022, the film adaptation of the Uncharted game “Uncharted: Not on the Cards” was released on the big screen. The main character was played by “spider” Tom Holland.

Ayane, Dead or Alive



But the role of the bright Ayane went to Natasiya Malta. In fact, the resemblance is simply uncanny!

Dude, Postal



In 2007, the world saw the film “Postal”, based on the game of the same name. Despite the fact that the film is a dark comedy and action film, it received a rather low rating of only 4.6 on IMDb. And all because of his excessive cruelty. The role of the main character Dude was played by Zach Ward.
