Extended RESIDENT EVIL: WELCOME TO RACCOON CITY Trailer Is The Stuff Of Nightmares!
Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City is slated for a November 24th release date in theaters and we have been getting a good idea of the films overall tone. It’s gonna be a horror movie to the umpteenth degree.
The film is promising to be “a new universe inspired by storylines and characters from Capcom’s classic Resident Evil games.”
Check out the pretty intense trailer below that gives a better look at one classic villain, the Licker!
Here’s the full official synopsis for the new movie…
“Returning to the terrifying roots of the massively popular franchise, fan and filmmaker Johannes Roberts brings the games of the billion dollar franchise and the most successful video game adaptation in history to life for a whole new generation of fans.”
“Once the booming home of pharmaceutical giant Umbrella Corporation, Raccoon City is now a dying Midwestern town. The company’s exodus left the city a wasteland…with great evil brewing below the surface. When that evil is unleashed, the townspeople are forever…changed…and a small group of survivors must work together to uncover the truth behind Umbrella and make it through the night.”
The cast includes Kaya Scodelario (Crawl) as Claire Redfield alongside Hannah John-Kamen (Ant-Man and the Wasp) as Jill Valentine, Robbie Amell (Upload) as Chris Redfield, Tom Hopper (The Umbrella Academy) as Albert Wesker, Avan Jogia (Zombieland: Double Tap) as Leon S. Kennedy, and Neal McDonough (Yellowstone) as William Birkin.
Additionally, Donal Logue (Silent Night, “Gotham”) is playing Chief Irons in the “origin story adaptation” of the games that’s set in Raccoon City in 1998.
