Netflix’s “Resident Evil” television series will debut globally on Netflix on July 14, 2022, and the franchise’s first ever live action series has unleashed its first teaser trailer today.

Netflix has promised that the series will “redefine the legendary horror franchise,” and the teaser only briefly hints at how with an intense, action-heavy horror montage.

You might spot a few recognizable beasties and motifs from the video game franchise in here. Chainsaws, zombies, creatures, and a whole lot of Umbrella Corp. up to no good.

If you look even closer, you might spot an interactive Easter egg or two that will lead to another teaser…

The all-new series expansion brings the best of the Resident Evil DNA forward – bad-ass heroines, insane creatures (some new/some familiar), a battle for survival and of course, a deep mystery to unravel. Andrew Dabb (Supernatural) expands the directions with fresh storytelling, bone chilling horror and an action-packed spectacle perfect for summer binging.”

Netflix’s “Resident Evil” is set in: “2036 – 14 years after a deadly virus caused a global apocalypse, Jade Wesker fights for survival in a world overrun by the blood-thirsty infected and insane creatures. In this absolute carnage, Jade is haunted by her past in New Raccoon City, by her father’s chilling connections to the Umbrella Corporation but mostly by what happened to her sister, Billie.”

The cast includes:

  • Lance Reddick as ALBERT WESKER
  • Ella Balinska
  • Tamara Smart
  • Siena Agudong 
  • Adeline Rudolph  
  • Paola Nuñez
  • Ahad Raza Mir 
  • Connor Gossatti 
  • Turlough Convery 

The 8-episodes series written/executive produced by Mary Leah Sutton, with producers also including Robert Kulzer, Oliver Berben, and Martin Moszkowicz of Constantin Film.

The original Capcom Resident Evil was released in 1996, launching an expansive video game and movie franchise that’s still going strong. It’ll be interesting to see how and where Netflix’s new series fits into that history.
