In case you’re unfamiliar, this Resident Evil series is the latest adaptation of Capcom’s ever-popular survival horror video game series. From the looks of it though, the show will be much more of its own thing unlike previous Resident Evil adaptations which are based more on the games in terms of look and story.
The series’ cast features Lance Reddick, Ella Balinska, Tamara Smart, Siena Agudong, Adeline Rudolph, and Paola Nuñez. Reddick is playing iconic villain, Albert Wesker.
The series’ premise is described as:
“Year 2036 – 14 years after a deadly virus caused a global apocalypse, Jade Wesker fights for survival in a world overrun by the blood-thirsty infected and insane creatures. In this absolute carnage, Jade is haunted by her past in New Raccoon City, by her father’s chilling connections to the Umbrella Corporation but mostly by what happened to her sister, Billie.”
The Resident Evil series will stream exclusively on Netflix on July 14, 2022.
