Next from Sony Pictures Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City is the live-action adaptation of the best-selling Resident Evil video game series. The film will be based on the original PlayStation game released in 1996. It will also serve as a reboot of Paul WS Anderson’s hit Resident Evil film series.

Re-filming is fairly common when making big-budget movies, but Hollywood’s track record has been mostly unpredictable. In recent years, most of the movies that were re-filmed close to the release date ended up being in poor shape by fans and critics alike (WW84, Justice League).

Also in the film are Kaya Scodelario as Claire Redfield, Hannah John-Kamen as Jill Valentine, Avan Jogia as Leon S. Kennedy, Tom Hopper as Albert Wesker, and Neal McDonough as William Birkin. Given that the film opens in November, a trailer is likely to be released soon. So let’s put the assumptions aside and wait until the movie is released. Hopefully it’s better than its predecessors. Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City will be released in theaters in the United States on November 24, 2021. This news was originally reported in Twitch via Bloody disgusting.
