Richard Baxter is the secondary antagonist in the 2022 live action Netflix show Resident Evil. He is a high-ranking Umbrella Officer. He is portrayed by Turlough Convery.

Biography[]

Richard Baxter is an Umbrella Officer who lead a task force that was ordered to bring in Jade Wesker. After eventually catching up to and cornering her, they are both caught and brought in by "the Brotherhood", a survivalist organization.

Now locked in a cell together, Baxter makes a deal with Jade; they work together to escape, and he'll report to Umbrella that she died, ending the search on her. Jade at first refuses to work with him, until she realizes that without him, she has no chance of escaping. Baxter proceeds to break out of the cell, save his comrades, and arm himself with weaponry. As he accidentally lets the undead that were in their cells loose, attempting to open the door to freedom, Baxter proceeds to single-handedly defeat all of the Brotherhood members and undead that were still in the main room. He then turns to see that Jade has ran off.

Locating Jade again, impressed she's still alive, and noticing she is bringing an undead head with her, Baxter leads her towards the exit. At said exit of the Brotherhood's fort, Baxter gets caught below Jade on the ladder upwards. As undead start grabbing his legs, he starts to fall, and begs Jade to let go of her bag containing the head of the undead's leader so that she can pull him up. Jade, however, chooses the bag over Baxter, and he falls back into the swarm of undead, as they tear him apart, killing him.

Personality[]

Baxter is at first glance a narcissist, who seems to not care for many other people around him, except for his two dogs, who he refers to at all times as his kids, named Charlie and Cardi.
