Watch The New Resident Evil Movie Trailer
A new trailer for Weapons and Barbarian director Zach Cregger's Resident Evil movie has arrived, providing a new look at the scary video game adaptation. In this new trailer, we see the medical courier Bryan (Austin Abrams) at a hospital where he takes on a new job where he must ferry organs to "Raccoon City General," a hospital "outside the zone." The job pays double, so Bryan takes it. Then, well, everything goes badly as Bryan finds himself in a world of hell.

What the video says
Zero iconic game characters are appearing in the upcoming Resident Evil film, a high-conviction bet that is dividing the franchise's fanbase. Director Zack Kraeger is taking a massive swing by ignoring fan demands for favorites like Leon Kennedy or Jill Valentine, opting instead for an entirely original story.
A newly released trailer reveals this pivotal departure, showcasing a terrifying world that moves completely away from traditional game lore. The movie follows Brian, an inept medical courier with absolutely no combat skills, who accepts double pay to ferry organs to Raccoon City General.
Krieger describes this unlikely protagonist as an "everyman on a sacred mission," comparing his terrifying journey to Frodo Baggins entering the heart of Mordor. While some fans remain highly skeptical of this massive narrative pivot, Krieger insists that followers of the games will not be bummed by his unique vision.
This standout experiment officially faces its ultimate judgment when the movie hits theaters on September 18th.
