Summary of information about Netflix’s Resident Evil series

In 2017, a rumor surfaced, claiming that Netflix was producing the Resident Evil TV series. Now, the Resident Evil franchise is finally coming to Netflix. The company has previously confirmed that it is developing its own Resident Evil television series with Capcom.

Unfortunately, we still don’t know much about the Resident Evil Netflix series. For example, no actors have been announced, nor is anything known about the main plot. However, with Netflix’s success with Castlevania and the upcoming The Witcher series (though The Witcher is heavily based on books rather than games), Netflix has stoked hopes that the company will bring similar success to Resident Evil.

Here’s what we know about the Resident Evil Netflix series:

PLOT

Journalist Nellie Andreeva, who covered the Resident Evil Netflix series earlier this year, shared some information about the plot. According to Andreeva, the Resident Evil Netflix series will “go deeper into the current mysteries” of the franchise. In addition, the series will give viewers a better look at the Umbrella corporation and a look at a world that has been ravaged by the T-Virus pandemic.

What we still don’t know at the moment is whether the Resident Evil series will try to stick to the plot of the video game. Surely fans will want to see the Spencer Estate of the original Resident Evil game again, while others want to see Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield survive in Raccoon City. However, based on Andreeva’s description, it seems that the Resident Evil series will take place in a world where the T-Virtus pandemic has raged.

CAST

Another unknown about the Resident Evil Netflix series is the cast. Currently, we don’t know who the main characters in the series are. Depending on the moment in the film and according to Andreeva’s plot description, we may see prominent characters in Umbrella appear, such as Albert Weskter, William Birkin, etc. However, only the presence of the villains is present. The characters in the movie are obviously too weird, hopefully we’ll see the STARS members again.

If Resident Evil Netflix decides to stick to the game, it will be interesting to see who plays the lead role, ie playing characters like Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine, Leon S. Kenndy, Claire Redfield, etc. great for Resident Evil fans to see their favorite characters turned into movies and more accurately than previous Resident Evil movies.

DELIVERY TIME BILLION

Another big unknown is the release date. We can be sure that the show will be available on the streaming platform in the next few years. The studio has yet to begin filming, but with the series’ announcement, a release date will be announced soon.

STILL ABOUT the REBOOT?

Some fans may confuse Resident Evil Netflix with the Resident Evil reboot. However, we need to point out that the Resident Evil reboot and the Netflix show are two completely different projects – according to what we have gathered. It’s possible that Resident Evil Netflix and the reboot take place in the same world, but that has yet to be confirmed by those inside.

And what will the Resident Evil reboot be about? The source said that it was inspired by Resident Evil 7. Therefore, we can assume that the Resident Evil reboot will remove the action element like previous films to stick to a pure horror experience. If the film brings the poor Baker family to the screen, it will easily accomplish that goal.

More information on the Resident Evil Netflix series will be announced soon as the film’s progress is accelerated. The article will continue to update as more details about this movie become available.
