The plot of Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil movie has leaked

by

It appears that a fresh take on Resident Evil is scheduled for release in 2026, and according to recent rumors, we have some insight into the film’s plotline.

Zach Cregger made a striking entrance into the horror genre with his first feature film, Barbarian, and fans are eagerly waiting for his next project, Weapons, set to be released in cinemas on August 8, 2025.

After that, he’ll be collaborating on both scriptwriting and direction for a new version of Resident Evil, a project that Craig had earlier mentioned would be crafted with the essence of the original video games in mind.

It’s being suggested that a new piece of information has surfaced, revealing the main character and his role within the narrative. In other words, potential spoilers lie ahead about the protagonist and how he fits into the storyline.

Resident Evil reboot revolves around an organ courier

Bryan, a casual organ transporter, is dispatched for a late-night delivery to Raccoon City General Hospital. While driving through a snowy mountain pass, he unintentionally collides with a mysterious woman on the road.

In my gaming world, I manage to keep alive, yet something’s off-kilter. As I attempt to aid, I find myself smack in the middle of an uncontainable catastrophe, where grotesque tentacle aberrations and genetically modified horrors run rampant.

In the upcoming movie, Austin Abrams takes on the role of Bryan, a casting choice that aligns well with his upcoming appearance in director Cregger’s production titled Weapons.

Zach Cregger hasn’t watched any Resident Evil movies

Zach Cregger is at present making media appearances promoting his latest project, Weapons. In these interviews, he’s been answering questions about future plans, and when asked what draws him to a Resident Evil film, the screenwriter-filmmaker explained his motivation to ComicBook.

Since I have a deep affection for video games, particularly these ones, I’ve played every single one of them. Among them, Resident Evil 4 is my absolute favorite, and I’ve replayed it over a hundred times. My obsession with it is unmatched, and thus, I wish to craft a narrative that pays tribute to the unique experience these games offer their players.

It appears that the upcoming movie won’t be tied to any previous films, as director Cregger stated: “I haven’t watched the movies, they’re not my cup of tea. But the games are something I really enjoy… I believe the movie is going to be fantastic. I think it’s going to exceed expectations.
