Zach Cregger, who has recently received acclaim for his award-winning motion picture Weapons, and is also known for the very freaky Barbarian before that, is hard at work on the new Resident Evil movie.
Simply titled Resident Evil the reboot hits theaters and IMAX on September 18th, 2026, but today Sony Pictures Entertainment dropped the first teaser trailer for the flick… and we’re liking what we see. For better or for worse the new movie features an all-new story and characters, so it’s not a retelling of any particular game plot or anything, though we’re excited to see where it takes us.
Check it out below and stay tuned for more.
