Netflix has released new details of its upcoming live-action Resident Evil TV series, which will star a set of familiarly-named children.
“When the Wesker kids move to New Raccoon City, the secrets they uncover might just be the end of everything,” Netflix’s description of the series states. “Resident Evil, a new live action series based on Capcom’s legendary survival horror franchise, is coming to Netflix.”
We’ve been hearing about Netflix’s plans for a Resident Evil TV show for 18 months now – though this concept sounds different to the one which was previously floated. In February, word of a series set in a location named Clearfield was published and then pulled by Netflix. Its description suggested it would involve Umbrella Organisation and its links to a decommissioned asylum, as well as to politicians in Washington DC.
