It took a teaser trailer (and multiple posters) for the upcoming RESIDENT EVIL: THE FINAL CHAPTER to make me realize I’m actually two films behind in the film franchise adapted from the popular video game series… I need to catch up, as I always found these to be guilty pleasures. Milla Jovovich returns to the role she made famous way back in 2002 (Good Lord, has it been that long?), and is joined in the new chapter by a few news faces and some returning performers. The supporting cast includes Ruby Rose, Ali Larter, Iain Glen, Shawn Roberts, Eoin Macken and William Levy. Paul W.S. Anderson, who directed the very first RESIDENT EVIL movie, appropriately returns behind the camera for this one. Check out the new posters (above and below) and the firs teaser trailer.
Picking up immediately after the events in Resident Evil: Retribution, humanity is on its last legs in Washington D.C. As the only survivor of what was meant to be humanity’s final stand against the undead hordes, Alice must return to where the nightmare began – Raccoon City, where the Umbrella Corporation is gathering its forces for a final strike against the only remaining survivors of the apocalypse. In a race against time Alice will join forces with old friends, and an unlikely ally, in an action packed battle with undead hordes and new mutant monsters. Between regaining her superhuman abilities at Wesker’s hand and Umbrella’s impending attack, this will be Alice’s most difficult adventure as she fights to save humanity, which is on the brink of oblivion.
