Ali Larter replacing Milla Jovovich in Resident Evil 4?

If a fourth movie happens, it might follow Ali Larter's Claire Redfield as the lead character.

Resident Evil: Extinction makes money then a new movie will soon be put into development and the series will be secure for one more outing however if it fails, then thankfully this last movie will be just that... the last. According to rumors started by actress Ali Larter however, the movie might be the last for star Milla Jovovich regardless of how well it does at the Box Office. Larter has told Shock Till You Drop that she has heard rumors that her character Claire Redfield who gets second highest billing in the latest movie, could be the lead of a possible Resident Evil 4 with Jovovich's character gone completely. The latest Resident Evil movie is being panned by critics at the moment but these movies have always been popular so I don't see it effecting the box office too much. The only thing that will see the numbers go down is the crappy trailer and the audience getting sick of seeing this series, rather than being told by critics that it's bad. Could the series survive without Jovovich? I really don't think it could. She is clearly one of the few action heroines we have in movies today. If Jovovich doesn't wanna do anymore, I say kill the series... going with Ali Larter would be a big mistake which would probably end up with straight-to-dvd material.
