Resident Evil movie relaunch is already filming – first look at Raccoon City and new details

Studio Constantin film started production of a full-length reboot Resident evil from the director Johannes Roberts (“Blue Abyss 1-2”).

At the moment, the film is being shot in a Canadian city. Greater Sudbury, whose locations, including Flor Mill, Hanmer and downtown, were reincarnated during production in 1998 Raccoon City. Before the coronavirus pandemic, Greater Sudbury served as a film set for many other films, and the city is excited about the reopening of film production, which should positively impact the local economy.

“I am thrilled to be able to celebrate the return of film and television production here to Greater Sudbury,” Mayor Brian Bigger said.

This is not the first time Canadian cities have been inspired by Raccoon City. Filming the first two parts “Resident evil” from Milla Jovovich took place in Toronto, and the background of the city in the remake Resident evil 2 actually was copied from Quebec.

The first shots from filming:

New movie, series and CG show details from an insider Dusk golem:

  • Movie Resident evil – A full-length reboot, the main characters of which will be Claire and Chris Redfields, who grew up orphans in Raccoon City. In the story, Claire leaves her hometown, while Chris stays and enters the police service. The film will also feature other classic characters from the franchise, including Leon Kennedy, William Birkin, Albert Wesker, Brian Irons, and Jill Valentine. The picture has nothing to do with the tapes of Paul W.S. Anderson and is an independent adaptation of the first two games in the series.
  • Series Resident evil from Netflix – multi-episode show with two time periods. The first will take place in the early 2023s in New Raccoon City – a city that seems too perfect and obviously hides dark secrets. The protagonists here are the sisters Jade and Billy Wesker – daughters of Albert Wesker, who live with him as a single father. The second time period will take viewers 20 years into the future, somewhere in the 2040s, when a zombie apocalypse occurs on Earth and only some cities manage to strengthen themselves to confront the ruthless monsters that have taken over the world. This timeline will show the journey of one of the sisters to the surviving city. The events of the series take place in their own universe and do not overlap with the new film.
  • Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness – Another series from Netflix, but this time – animated. Unlike the other two projects, this show will be included in the in-game canon of the series and will show the story of Leon and Claire after the events of the CG film Resident Evil: Vendetta. In the story, Leon survives a virus outbreak in the White House, and Claire finds her friend dead surrounded by strange things, which forces her to start investigating.

The premiere of the picture and the animated series will take place next year… The live-action show has yet to be announced.

Deadline revealed the cast of the film earlier this month
