In an all-new story, Resident Evil follows Bryan (Austin Abrams), a medical courier who unwittingly finds himself in an action-packed, non-stop race for survival as one fateful, horrifying night collapses around him in chaos.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Like I said before, this looks awesome, but don\u2019t know if it\u2019s going to feel like RESIDENT EVIL. I mean, don\u2019t get me wrong, I don\u2019t need Chris, Jill, Leon, Wesker\u2026 the list goes on, and as the YouTube synopsis says, this will be a new story, so I don\u2019t expect to see the game characters in the movie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which honestly may not be a bad thing. Paul W.S. Anderson wrote and directed the first RESIDENT EVIL movie, he famously talked about how he wanted to avoid stories and characters from the games to give fans of the games something new if they checked out the movie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the first movie hit all the right notes for me. Sadly, the rest of the movies in that run sucked harder and harder with each sequel. Where Anderson started with creating his own story within that world, he started mashing in game characters and story concepts, and it just became a little bit of a hot mess to be honest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But I\u2019ve enjoyed Cregger\u2019s movies more consistently than Anderson\u2019s. So, we\u2019ll see how this goes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All that said whether or we get shoutouts or Easter Eggs from the games, the trailer\u2019s vibe didn\u2019t have me feeling like I was jumping into the RE world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Safe to say, while I have my reservations about this movie will play out, I am looking forward to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>RESIDENT EVIL is set to open in theatres on September 18<sup>th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/resident-evil-2026-poster-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"691\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/resident-evil-2026-poster-691x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3785\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/resident-evil-2026-poster-691x1024.jpg 691w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/resident-evil-2026-poster-203x300.jpg 203w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/resident-evil-2026-poster-768x1138.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/resident-evil-2026-poster-50x74.jpg 50w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/resident-evil-2026-poster-1600x2370.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/resident-evil-2026-poster-1037x1536.jpg 1037w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/resident-evil-2026-poster-1382x2048.jpg 1382w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/resident-evil-2026-poster-800x1185.jpg 800w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/resident-evil-2026-poster-600x889.jpg 600w, https:\/\/fuzzybug.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/resident-evil-2026-poster-scaled.jpg 1728w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 691px) 100vw, 691px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You\u2019ve probably heard by now that we\u2019re getting a new RESIDENT EVIL movie\u2026 and honestly, I just don\u2019t know how I feel about it.
