Instagram model confirms she’s Resident Evil 4 remake’s Ashley actress

Ashley model and actress Ella Freya says she “almost cried” when she watched the Resident Evil 4 remake reveal trailer

www.videogameschronicle.com

Shortly after the trailer’s publication, model Freya confirmed she was behind the new Ashley featured in the reveal trailer. She wrote: “When I saw the trailer, I almost cried. I’m so happy right now. Thank you everyone from the bottom of my heart”.

She later added: “I’m so glad to join the RE family”.



Freya is a Japan-based model who runs a Patreon and Instagram account. She also occasionally live streams video games on her YouTube channel.

“I have always had a passion for modelling,” she wrote. “However, I am not tied to any agency, and I prefer to create my own pictures together with a photographer.”

Resident Evil 4 Remake Will Not Use Leon Actor Matthew Mercer

Matthew Mercer will not be returning as Leon Kennedy in Resident Evil 4 Remake. The internet went into a bit of a frenzy yesterday following the reveal of Resident Evil 4 Remake. Capcom has spent the last few years remaking classic Resident Evil games with reimagined stories, modern gameplay...

comicbook.com

During yesterday's PlayStation State of Play, Capcom kicked off the event by confirming it would be releasing Resident Evil 4 Remake next spring. Fans immediately grew excited about the potential of this project and reached out to Leon Kennedy actor Matthew Mercer to see if he'd reprise his role. Sadly, Mercer stated he's not involved in the project, but hopes whoever is playing the iconic character will make everyone proud. Mercer didn't play Leon in the original Resident Evil 4, that was Paul Mercier, but it's unclear if he will be playing the character. Matthew Mercer played Leon in Resident Evil 6 and some animated films, but it's likely Nick Apostolides, the voice of Leon in Resident Evil 2 Remake and Netflix's Resident Evil Infinite Darkness, will take on the role for Resident Evil 4 Remake. Apostolides has yet to confirm or deny whether he will reprise his role, however.




Thanks mods for the title change

IDK when it happened, but I follow her. I think she works between Japan and the Netherlands a lot. She's a pretty girl and always thought she looked wholesome. Very few of her posts are "thirst traps" LOL

Good for her!

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Hot in a nice natural way.

It’s been a while since my last play though but I reckon she will fit the role well. Shame about Leon’s voice actor not making a return.

 

[ByWatterson]

"Hey, it's that fox!"

 

[YukiOnna]

Now everyone is going to be calling her their wife Draugoth TintoConCasera

Also, Mercer voiced him in RE6? They have so many different voice actors for Leon, lol.

 

[ParaSeoul]

The real ones found her within hours.

I need to know who voices her cause I'm gonna be bombarded with Leon, help!

[nominedomine]

My mind is blown that Matthew Mercer was the original voice actor for Ashley, impressive range.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Hope she's ready to have her face all over R34 when the game releases

 

[Fermbiz]

Thats not the Instagram model i was hoping for...

 

[Skifi28]

Wait, she's not equipped with ballistics. How disappointing.

 

[lostinblue]

Oh, I hope they pick Ada from Onlyfans.

 

[killatopak]

Oh, I hope they pick Ada from Onlyfans.

Leon is the same from RE2 so Ada will probably as well.

 

[adamsapple]

The one sound bite we heard from the trailer definitely sounded like the actor from the Re2 remake.

Nick Apostolides

Nicholas Apostolides (born March 1, 1984[1]) is an American voice actor who provided the voice and motion capture performance of Leon S. Kennedy in 2019's Resident Evil 2[2][3] and returned to play the character in Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness.[4][5] He reprised his role as Leon in 2023's...

Lol, will Capcom stick to the original ending of Ashley being rejected by Leon at the end or will feminazis take up a new issue?

I’d love to see them start making out while the credits roll. Lol

Which one would be your preference

 

[StateofMajora]

She is, but Luis probably won't reference them, the cowards :/

 

[Fermbiz]

Which one would be your preference

Im so glad you asked!

Spoiler

 

[Deerock71]

I know Leon was being a gentleman, but he'll wonder what it could've been like for the rest of his life.*


*How do I know? EXPERIENCE.

Too bad Leon doesn't wanna have sex, ever. That schmuck.

In the oculus quest 2 version they straight up removed everything he says about women lol

Fucking sucks. Those were perfectly fine comments that gave him personality.

Closeted necrophiliac

Damn he would do things to dead Lady D?

 

[Gamerguy84]

How sweet and innocent.

She probably doesn't poop

 

[March Climber]

New Ashley looks horrible.

Ashley looks weird.

 

[ÆMNE22A!C]

Damn he would do things to dead Lady D?

If her body is still warm.. I'll tell you this, at least I'll smell her hair

Just kidding...

 

[TGO]

She is cute.
Definitely looks like close the original which is good.

Interesting mix of hot AND cute, you don't see that very often. I do notice the Japanese, generally, have good taste.

[Doom85]

(quickly checks Google)

Oh, okay, she’s 23. LOL, sorry, a few of these photos of her made her look a little sus age-wise, and I mean even the OG Ashley’s age was kind of questionable (she’s 20, but still it was hard to tell exactly), but we’re all good.

(calls FBI)

No, we’re all good here now. False alarm.

 

[Fbh]

She's cute though she will probably look wierd in game as all the uncanny Valley models in the RE engine.

 

[Doom85]

My mind is blown that Matthew Mercer was the original voice actor for Ashley, impressive range.

Which is funny to think about since he does do voices for all the NPCs, male and female, in his D&D campaigns on Critical Role. Obviously there’s some overlap but he does indeed have a pretty good range. Obviously the female voices don’t sound exactly accurate but he probably does a better job than most dudes would if they tried.

 

[Doom85]

She's cute though she will probably look wierd in game as all the uncanny Valley models in the RE engine.

Uncanny? With RE Engine? Who we talking about? At best I could say Remake Claire is slightly off, and the way Mia’s hair moved in 7 always looked weird to me, but not to the point of uncanny valley and other than that I always thought the faces were great. We haven’t got the best look at Leon, Ada, or the villains of 4 yet, but the photo of Ashley looked good.

Like, calling something uncanny valley I reserve for shit like the Polar Express film. Now THAT had some weird ass looking CGI faces.
