Characters

 * Owen Wilson as Samuel J. Stuhlinger - A 42-Year-Old conspiracy theorist that had been hiding before the apocalypse in his mother's basement. He was born on September 25th, 1993. He is a Caucasian man with a charcoal sweater, green vest, khaki shorts and glasses. He has short, grey hair, and appears slightly overweight. He also has a fanny pack. He is incredibly paranoid and seems to be a conspiracy theorist. He is frustrated with the lack of explanations to the events that occur and so he creates his own theories, often involving aliens or government cover-ups. Riddled with guilt due to his history of cannibalism, Samuel does not like to talk about himself around the others out of fear that they will either kill him or abandon him if they knew his secret. Samuel hates Misty and dislikes Marlton, but likes Russman.


 * Tobey Maguire as Marlton Johnson - A 20-Year-Old nerd who was a Straight-A student and was looking to teach Cyberdefense at MIT. He was born on August 22nd, 2015. His appearance is of a stereotypical nerd in his twenties. He wears a white-collared shirt, blue jeans, glasses (which are shown to have been repaired with cloth tape in the Buried cutscene), and nice brown shoes accessorized with a pocket protector and a wrist calculator. He is covered in soot and has a few tears in his pants. He also wears a loose tie. Marlton favors using a larger, advanced vocabulary, and thinks of himself as mentally superior to the others. He is often pedantic and smug although quite self-conscious. Marlton is very knowledgeable about weapons, often reeling off facts and critiques on the guns he acquires from the Mystery Box (though he seems to have a dislike of most of them). Marlton suffers from claustrophobia, which is the fear of having no escape and being closed in small spaces or rooms; as well as mysophobia and germaphobia, which is the fear of contamination and germs respectively. Marlton likes Misty, however he dislikes Samuel, and despises Russman even more, which is reciprocated by him. However, his hatred for Russman only goes so far, as he is above refusing help from him when he is downed or swarmed, and is even willing to help Russman remember his past when he loses his memory, as the Buried cutscene shows. He has a strong emotional attachment to Misty and often compliments her. Misty has a crush on Marlton, and he reciprocates those feelings despite claiming he feels no emotion, and explains that he has a special relationship with her. In the comics, Marlton seems to be more emotionally attached to her and her safety, such as immediately aiming his gun at Stuhlinger when the man pushes her and calling out her name after witnessing her fall into a hole created by a zombie. Though he suffers from his phobias, he seems to not be fazed by Misty's touches when Misty cups his chin and gets close to his face. Later on in the comics, he ends up placing a hand on her shoulder, giving her a smile.


 * Maggie Q as Abigail "Misty" Briarton - A 16-Year-Old teenage farm girl who loves Marlton. She was born on July 13th, 2019. Misty wears a red flannel shirt tied in the front over a black bra, ripped and faded jeans, brown work gloves and brown boots that rise halfway up her shins. She also wears a belt with magazine pouches on it. She is a redhead and wears her hair in a short ponytail down the back, covered by her white and green baseball cap. She has freckles, as well as cuts and scratches on her bare belly. Misty is very much a tomboy. Brash and self-satisfied, thinking very highly of herself and her record as a knife fighting champion. She despises Stuhlinger, who returns this sentiment, although there are hints that Stuhlinger might secretly harbor feelings of attraction towards her. A few of her moments also show she dislikes Russman. She is romantically interested in Marlton (who returns the favor) and relies on his intelligence with regards to weapons and crafted items. She has bad memories associated with her past and tries to suppress any thoughts about them, keeping herself occupied by killing zombies.


 * Samuel L. Jackson as Russman - A 54-Year-Old Old Man who feels like abandoning the group. He was born on April 4th, 1981. His appearance is of an elderly African-American man with white hair, wearing a brown trench coat and jeans. He wears a boot on one foot and a sneaker on the other, giving him the appearance of a homeless man. Russman seems to despise Marlton greatly, which is a mutual contempt. He pities Samuel and often gives support, though Russman occasionally calls out to him when ammunition runs dry. Russman likewise doesn't seem to have much respect for Misty, although they knew each other before the outbreak started. He is a very spiritual person, as he believes the Mystery Box to be the work of the devil (often calling it a "Devil Box" in anger), while conversely, he believes the Pack-a-Punch Machine to be the work of the angel (calling it an "Angel Machine"). He is pessimistic and grumpy a lot of the time, suffers from memory loss on occasion, and sometimes refers to himself in the third person. Russman also appears to be fond of explosives, particularly the War Machine. However, Russman holds a high disdain for sniper rifles. Likely it is because of his hate for Marlton, who is very fond of sniper rifles, or perhaps the fact that explosive-launching weapons are incredibly different from sniper rifles. As well, he has a liking for some pistols, particularly the Five-Seven and the Remington New Model Army, which is slightly similar to Samuel Stuhlinger, who also favours the Five-Seven.
