A new leak about the upcoming Resident Evil movie reveals it could be set around Resident Evil 2 and 3.
Another Resident Evil live-action adaptation is coming, and Zach Creggler will be writing and directing the upcoming movie. It was recently stated that the upcoming adaptation will be “built in the spirit of those games and follows one central protagonist from point A to point B, as they descend deeper into hell.” The new leak provides more context to this comment.
Resident Evil Movie Could be Set Between the Events of Resident Evil 2 and 3
The latest Resident Evil movie leak, courtesy of Daniel RPK (via Comicbook.com), reveals the plot of the upcoming adaptation. The synopsis talks about Bryan, “a laid-back organ courier”, who will reportedly be portrayed by The Walking Dead’s Austin Abrams. Bryan has to go on a late-night delivery to Raccoon City General Hospital, and that’s where the strangeness starts to unfold.
During the delivery, Bryan has to pass a snowy mountain road, where he accidentally hits a strange woman with his car. The woman survives somehow, but something seems “very wrong”. Bryan tries to help the lady and ends up stumbling “into a full-blown outbreak involving horrifying tentacle-based mutations and bio-engineered monstrosities”
According to the leaked Resident Evil movie plot, the outbreak in Racoon City appears to be ongoing, and the bomb has yet to be dropped. It is speculated that the upcoming adaptation could be set around Resident Evil 2 and 3, as the outbreak was last seen in these games. However, as this is a leak, players should take this information with a grain of salt.
In other news, the Resident Evil movie director had recently stated he’s “definitely not trying to be completely obedient to the lore of the games.” What are your thoughts on the Resident Evil movie plot leak, which reveals its connection to the games?
