Resident Evil (2026)

OK before anyone of you says "Not another live-action Resident Evil movie!"...This is from Zach Creggar, director of Barbarian and Weapons.

Foe me it's not necessarily "Not another live-action Resident Evil movie!", but more "Not another live-action Resident Evil movie that is absolutely nothing like the games!" Regarding Cregger, I enjoyed Weapons but thought Barbarian was garbage.

Loved Weapons.

I generally enjoyed the movies, and haven't honestly played many of the games.

The director has stated in an interview that this film won't feature any of the canonical characters from the game, so take that how you will.

I'll take it that it will suck as hard as the Jovovich movies in the aspect of not being anything like the games.

On one hand people won't complain about casting and costuming and dialog and changes to /omissions of setpieces and cutscenes from the game so that's good. On the other hand... characters and setpieces are the only thing RE games have going for them FIGHT ME. The worldbuilding is all over the place.
