%%* WellIntentionedExtremist

* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler:Wesker, who's been built up as the BigBad of the series, ends up being upstaged by Marcus in ''The Final Chapter'', incapacitated by an extremely mundane injury he should have been able to easily avoid with his powers, [[ForgotAboutHisPowers which he never even uses for some reason]], and gets killed off in an extremely anticlimactic manner, without even a fight scene.]] The {{novelization}} of ''The Final Chapter'' attempts to [[AllThereInTheManual explain this discrepancy, among other things]], aside from implying [[spoiler:he did not die.]]

* TooDumbToLive: Oh yeah, go off on your own in a zombie infested building. It'll surely end well.

* AdaptionalPersonalityChange: Unlike his game counterpart, Wesker is fully loyal to Umbrella and never betrayed them at all.

* AdaptionalWimp: In the games, it is impossible to defeat Wesker even in a two-on-one match.

He also has more difficulty in controlling the virus within him and believes that consumiing Alice will solve this problem.

* Ship tease: She has a little with Chris in a deleted scene, commenting about women having greater lung capacity than “you big strong men”. The way she smiles at him and shifts from side to side a little as she says it really sell it.

* BigBad: Appears to be this throughout the series, most prominently in ''Afterlife'', then in ''The Final Chapter'' it turns out he's merely TheDragon to the real leader of Umbrella, [[spoiler: the original Dr. Isaacs.]]

After he was resurrected by the Queen Leech, he leaks the virus into every Umbrella Facility within the mountains and plans to spread it further into the world. Here, Marcus is actually a well-mannered scientist who created the T-Virus to treat his daughter and was against using it as a bio-weapon.

* AdaptationalNationality: His nationality is never mentioned beyond his traditional South American billing, but it's notable that his surname in the games is written as Oliveira (a Portuguese surname, implying he might be Brazilian), while the films spell it as Olivera (its Spanish form, meaning he might come from a Spanish-speaking Latin country instead). The novelizations also establish he has Israeli ascendancy, just like his actor.

* DyingMomentOfAwesome

* WeAreStrugglingTogether: He's initially extremely jumpy and hostile to the other survivors seeking refuge in the church, pointing his gun at them and demanding they leave. However, Peyton is able to calm him down.
