Subtlety has never exactly been a hallmark of the Resident Evil movie series, but this first trailer for The Final Chapter quadruples down on the frenetic pace. Take a look...
For what is being touted as the last entry (at least from Paul W.S. Anderson, the man who has produced all and directed almost all the movies so far), the new one promises to bring bring the evil home. And indeed we see Milla Jovovich's Alice, having survived the conflict in Washington, heading back to Raccoon City to confront the terror of the Umbrella Corporation once and for all.
It does seem to be business as usual here: with the corrupt, calculating AI system the Red Queen (played here by Jovovich and Anderson's daughter Ever) threatening our hero, a swarm of the infected and a rag-tag bunch of human crusaders prepared to make a last stand. You know, again.
Featuring a blend of old faces (Iain Glen's Dr. Alexander Isaacs is back alongside Shawn Roberts' Albert Wesker and Ali Larter's Claire) and new (Orange Is The New Black's Ruby Rose plays a woman named Abigail), Resident Evil: The Final Chapter has Jovovich looking to outdo her previous action moments as she prepares to hang up her guns, knives, crowbars and whatever else she has lying around to kill the enemy creatures with.
The movie will be on our screens on February 24 next year.
