From television to Raccoon City

Lily Gao is a Chinese-born Canadian actress whose credits include television, film and video games. Her screen work includes the science-fiction series The Expanse and the series Second Jen.

In The Expanse, she plays Nancy Gao. The role placed her in a story where political rivalries extend across Earth, Mars and the outer planets.

Gao appeared as Ada Wong in Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City. In an interview about the film, she discussed bringing the established game character into a live-action setting.

She subsequently returned to Ada in the 2023 Resident Evil 4 video game. The two performances connect the same character across different versions of the franchise.
