OverView

During a surreal lockdown where an airborne plague topples bodies to the floor, two estranged twin brothers—one newly freed, the other who stole his name and fate—find themselves entangled in a feverish web of deceit. A cosplaying femme fatale, a seductive voice on the line, and a gang of trickster pookas stir the smoke and shadows of this campy pulp-noir.

Described as a reboot that won't retell a story from the game series, but will return to the franchise's suspense/horror roots and be more faithful to the spirit of the early games. The film will attempt to capture “the moment that comes in every Resident Evil game where you find yourself standing in the mouth of a dark passageway with one shot left in the gun, and you know something horrible is waiting for you in that darkness – that awful moment where you have to will yourself forward.” The film will “follow one central protagonist from point A to point B, as they descend deeper into hell.”
