Resident Evil Rebooted Already
The Resident Evil franchise in the movie-world has been a 15-year lasting joyride with Milla Jovovich as Alice, the bad-ass protagonist. She went from psycho-thriller to action-adventure to post-apocapyptic to zombie-flic and the end came with the “Final Chapter” just this year.
While the movies never had a big success in the USA, the overseas successes primarily in China made it a franchise worthy of coming back time after time, much like Alice herself.
Variety is reporting straight out of the 2017 Cannes Film Festival that the German production company (who is holding the rights since forever) Constantin Film is planning a complete 6-movie reboot of the property. Nothing much can be said at this point other then the franchise is far from over and done with. Just keep on watching the newsfeeds!
