Netflix’s Resident Evil Looks Like A Cool Twist On The Franchise’s Lore

Netflix has started a week-long celebration of its upcoming shows and movies coming to the streaming service, and on today’s edition of Geeked Week, a new trailer premiered for the new Resident Evil series. Warning: The footage contains violence, gore and explicit language.

Resident Evil takes place in two time periods, 2022 and 2036, following Jade Wesker (Ella Balinska) before and after the T-Virus is unleashed on the public, causing all kinds of monsters such as zombie people, zombie dogs, and the biggest monster of them all, pharmaceutical corporations. A kaiju-sized caterpillar is also featured, which I think is pretty awesome! Lance Reddick stars as Albert Wesker and Tetiana Gaidar. Connor Gosatti is also featured in the series.
