Nick Apostolides, the voice and motion-capture actor for Leon S. Kennedy in the Resident Evil franchise, (Resident Evil 2 remake, Resident Evil 4 remake, and the Netflix series Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness), talks fandom, manifestation, motion capture, leaks, and what it means to carry one of gaming’s most iconic characters into a new generation.
