OMG! Jean Reno is AWSOME! I love that man.... uh I mean I admire him a lot! I love his movies especially WASABI and THE PROFESSIONAL aka LEON. Reno really does look like himself in Onimusha 3.

A couple of reasons why:
Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny didn't sell too well over in France, so CAPCOM wanted a well known French actor to be one of the main characters;
CAPCOM didn't want to use a huge Hollywood star (because they would have demanded a lot of money but not all Hollywood stars are like that. Canadian Michael Ironside is well known. He's Sam Fisher in the Splinter Cell series and he didn't ask for $10 million), so getting someone who's both big and not well known (surprisningly enough, Jean isn't that well known, until you make mention of something that he's in) but he's huge in France, and that's a country that CAPCOM wanted Onimusha to get noticed in.
Those aren't the exact words but that's they are [two of] the basic reasons. Jean allowed CAPCOM to use his likeness.

Well I just watched the Pocari Sweat commercial. (Big thank you to Jade. ) Mmm, makes me thirsty, all right, but not for the drink or all the dripping water in the ad...
