Another Shot Of Alice Taking Aim In ‘Resident Evil: Retribution’

While I wish Sony Screen Gems would just reboot the francise without Paul W.S. Anderson (and stick it in the elusive mansion where the franchise belongs), it’s hard to be disappointed with new imagery featuring the ultra-sexy Milla Jovovich as Alice, who returns once again in Resident Evil: Retribution on September 14.

In the new image we see Alice taking aim (again). We’re still waiting on a hi-res version of Alice kicking a zombie in the face so you can quickly make it your background.

In the latest entry, “The Umbrella Corporation’s deadly T-virus continues to ravage the Earth, transforming the global population into legions of the flesh eating Undead. The human race’s last and only hope, Alice (Milla Jovovich), awakens in the heart of Umbrella’s most clandestine operations facility and unveils more of her mysterious past as she delves further into the complex. Without a safe haven, Alice continues to hunt those responsible for the outbreak; a chase that takes her from Tokyo to New York, Washington, D.C. and Moscow, culminating in a mind-blowing revelation that will force her to rethink everything that she once thought to be true. Aided by newfound allies and familiar friends, Alice must fight to survive long enough to escape a hostile world on the brink of oblivion. The countdown has begun.READ MORE

RE5Landscapel11912 [Special Report]: Returning Heroes And Villains, Submarine Ice Battles, Talk Of Russian Motorcycle Zombies And Prequels On The Set Of Resident Evil: Retribution 3D!

Last month I was on the set of Sony Screen Gems’ Resident Evil: Retribution in Toronto.

There I was able to chat with the cast and crew about what appears to be the biggest installment in the franchise yet. Globetrotting adventures? Check. Shifting alliances? Check. More action? Check. Chats with Milla Jovovich, Paul W.S. Anderson, Sienna Guillory, Michelle Rodriguez, Oded Fehr and Boris Kodjoe? Check.

Want a few more boxes to check off? How about talk of a sixth installment and talk of a prequel. Those – along with the lowdown on the scenes saw being filmed – are all inside.

In the film, “The Umbrella Corporation’s deadly T-virus continues to ravage the Earth, transforming the global population into legions of the flesh eating Undead.

Paul W.S. Anderson Talks ‘Resident Evil 6′, Film’s Producers Discuss A Prequel!

 Paul W.S. Anderson Talks Resident Evil 6, Films Producers Discuss A Prequel!

I was recently on set for Sony Screen Gems’ Resident Evil: Retribution in Toronto, a visit in which there was ample opportunity to talk with much of the film’s cast and crew (full report coming soon). While most of the conversation centered around the most recent installment’s returning cast members and globetrotting narrative, there was one inevitable topic that kept arising – the future of the franchise.

The Resident Evil franchise is one of the lucky few in which the box office grosses just keep going up – and with that trend not looking to die down with the current installment it seems as if it’s (almost) a foregone conclusion that Part 6 will happen. In fact, director Paul W.S. Anderson already has a story in mind (it would be the completion of a trilogy cycle started in Afterlife) and there was even discussion of filming parts 5 and 6 back to back (a discussion which was admittedly abandoned early on).

While there isn’t a script yet, here’s what director Paul W.S. Anderson had to say on the matter. “There was an early discussion about [filming 5 and 6 back to back], but we just decided to focus on this movie. But if we made another one I do know where it would go. And obviously it would be great to do two full trilogies and just bring everything to an end.

Would the sixth one be a finale then?

Yes. Definitely. Unless of course no one goes to see this one”.

To find out the cast’s reactions and predictions (as well as the reactions of the series’ producers) for the sixth installment, make sure to check out our full Resident Evil: Retribution. There’s also talk of doing a prequel after that so be sure to stay tuned!

The set report will be up in a matter of moments!

‘Resident Evil: Retribution’s’ Unknown Giant Creature

I’m expecting a pretty huge movie considering how long they’ve been filming Resident Evil: Retribution. And even if it’s the norm for a big budget action-horror flick, it feels like an eternity in covering all of star Milla Jovovich’s tweets and video blogs. This morning she dropped a pretty big bomb via the following lengthy tweet:

Gmornin every1 where it’s morning! Gevening to all those where it’s evening! There’s a HUGE wire stunt 2day here at camp evil as guess what?! Im not allowed 2 do it! Aargh! It’s a 50 ft. Fly on a wire rig w a flip AND gunfire (sob) to kill a c, but the set is too tight and my incredible stunt double -Jo Anne Leach- has to land in2 crash pads 2 make it and the insurance company and my husband said Absolutely NOT. I’m bummed but there u go. Safety first.the sequence is gonna KILL tho n no matter what Jo is my girl and she’s THE BEST, so trust me when u c it in the film it will b overwhelmingly awe inspiring! That’s my news of the morning. Gotta get hair n make up on.

When she says “gynormous creature” I can only hope she means “a creature as tall as Godzilla”. After five Resident Evil films, it would be nice to see writer/director Paul W.S. Anderson think outside the box for once. READ MORE

BREAKING: Sienna Guillory WILL Return as Jill Valentine in ‘Resident Evil: Retributon’!

Earlier this month we stated that Sony Screen Gems may recast Jill Valentine in Resident Evil: Retribution, while other news outlets misreported stories claiming Valentine was being omitted from the sequel entirely.

Director and franchise producer Paul W.S. Anderson cares about the franchise’s fans and proved it today having just closed a deal with Sienna Guillory to strap on her zombie stompin’ boots for the 3-D sequel filming later this month in Toronto, Japan and eventually Russia.

Milla Jovovich, who will return as Alice, confirmed the news via Twitter: “i can’t reply right now, but wanted 2 let u all know that Sienna Guillory @guillorybe closed her deal on the new RE movie! we r so excited!!

She’s excited? How about the entire Resident Evil community?! Now if only Anderson would write Sienna a LARGER ROLE. We want to see Valentine kickin’ some arse! Screen Gems fights Umbrella Corp. once again on September 14, 2012.

Update: The Great Jill Valentine Controversy

Update: I made a few calls and got a juicy piece of insider info that I unfortunately have to leave extremely vague. She may, or may not be back. That is all. The end.

When we broke the news the other day that Milla Jovovich would be returning to star in Sony Screen Gems’ Resident Evil: Retribution, we also noted that contrary to Sienna Guillory’s previous Twitter posts, “Jill Valentine’s” role is being recast.

Now, this could be a casting error or it’s even possible they are looking for an older or younger version for some sort of flashback/flash-forward sequence. All I know is that I saw it, with my own two eyes.

Since our report, Guillory took back to Twitter stating “I’m loyal to R.E. always. Don’t know about where the rumors come from. But if they want someone else it’s not up to me!

We’re doing some extra fact checking to see if we can’t solve this mystery, but I’m siding with the fans on this one: what’s the point of recasting her? I want to see Guillory back at Jill Valentine!

Plot details are under lock and key, but Sony Screen Gems is aiming to have it in theaters come September 14, 2012. An October start date is locked in Toronto and Japan with Paul W.S. Anderson returning to direct.
