Here’s our first look at first-person POV in Zach Cregger's “Resident Evil — seen below.
Yep, Cregger confirmed the film will use a mix of first-person shooter-style sequences and wider over-the-shoulder cinematography. That approach immediately separates this reboot from previous Resident Evil movies, which largely leaned into traditional action filmmaking.
The story follows Bryan, played by Austin Abrams, a package delivery driver tasked with transporting a mysterious briefcase to Raccoon City Hospital during a deadly virus outbreak. Abrams plays a slightly off-kilter, druggie type who gets thrown into chaos.
We also have two new posters for the film, seen below, which hits theaters on September 18, 2026 via Sony. Dariusz Wolski (“Dark City,” “Sweeney Todd”) is the cinematographer — he’s lensed nine Ridley Scott films in 14 years.
