There must be some level of irony around a video game<\/a> movie about a deadly pandemic wrapp<\/a>ing up production amid a real-life pandemic. But the context in which the new\u00a0Resident Evil<\/em><\/strong> film has been filming is certainly not intentional, as the Johannes Roberts<\/strong>-helmed reboot is Sony and Constantin Film\u2019s newest expansion of a film franchise that began with Paul W.S. Anderson\u2019s 2002 film. Anderson would direct or co-write the next five films in the series<\/a>, but he steps away from the franchise completely with the latest\u00a0Resident Evil<\/em> movie, which has no connections to the previous films and is on track to be released theatrically in 2021.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Resident Evil<\/em> reboot directed by\u00a0Johannes Roberts\u2019 (47 Meters Down, The Strangers: Prey at Night<\/em>) for Constantin Film has officially wrapped filming this week, per a Sony announcement on Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The film is set to be an \u201corigin story adaptation\u201d of the popular Capcom video game franchise, taking place in Raccoon City in 1998. It is planned to kick off \u201ca new universe inspired by storylines and characters from Capcom\u2019s classic\u00a0Resident Evil<\/em>\u00a0games.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWith this movie, I really wanted to go back to the original first two games and recreate the terrifying visceral experience I had when I first played them\u00a0whilst at the same time telling a grounded human story about a small dying American town that feels both relatable and relevant to today\u2019s audiences,\u201d said Roberts in a statement shared by Deadline.<\/p>\n

Notably, the film\u2019s logo is very similar to those of the recent remakes of the\u00a0Resident Evil 2<\/em> and\u00a0Resident Evil 3<\/em> video games, which were a blend of\u00a0moody horror and tense action, unlike the bombastic Anderson movies. Perhaps Roberts, whose skill set is very much in the horror realm, might be approaching the film with that genre in mind versus the action-forward approach the Anderson films are famous for.
\nThe cast for the\u00a0Resident Evil<\/em> reboot includes\u00a0Kaya Scodelario<\/strong>\u00a0(Crawl<\/em>) as Claire Redfield alongside\u00a0Hannah John-Kamen<\/strong>\u00a0(Ant-Man and the Wasp<\/em>) as Jill Valentine,\u00a0Robbie Amell\u00a0<\/strong>(Upload<\/em>) as Chris Redfield,\u00a0Tom Hopper<\/strong>\u00a0(The Umbrella Academy<\/em>) as Albert Wesker,\u00a0Avan Jogia<\/strong>\u00a0(Zombieland: Double Tap<\/em>) as Leon S. Kennedy, and\u00a0Neal McDonough<\/strong>\u00a0(Yellowstone<\/em>) as William Birkin.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Resident Evil<\/em> reboot is set to hit theaters in 2021<\/strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n
