The Resident Evil franchise has always tried to free itself from video games, and to contaminate other media. It’s in his DNA. The cinema is one of the privileged targets of the saga with no less than a dozen films having seen the light of day in less than 20 years, and several large-scale projects regularly enrich this universe.
Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness is presented to us by Hiroyuki Kobayashi, the producer in charge at Capcom of the cross-media development of the saga, through a new trailer which reveals more about the scenario as well as the place of this project in the lore.
This CG animated series for the SVOD platform Netflix takes place precisely two years after the events of Resident Evil 4, and involves the duo Leon S. Kennedy / Claire Redfield during the invasion of the White House by biological weapons.
Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness will be available on Netflix in July 2021.
