News culture Resident Evil: a new film in preparation? The saga does not abdicate to the cinema
A new Resident Evil movie is reportedly planned, despite the reception of recent productions.
Resident Evil and the film adaptations, it’s a great story of love and hate. Since the beginning of the 2000s and until 2016, the actress Jovovich mile is the headliner of many films produced by Paul W. S. Anderson (to whom we also owe the film DOA: Dead or Alive and Monster Hunter).
In 2021, a brand new film was born, named Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City. And unsurprisingly, it was not well received by fans and the press. On Rotten Tomatoes it obtains an average of 30% of the press and 1.8/5 of the spectators on Allociné. As if that wasn’t enough, an 8-episode Netflix series appeared in 2022, soberly named Resident Evil, which didn’t convince fans either and was canceled after just one season.
