The film is the third CG-animated film for the franchise, after 2008’s Resident Evil: Degeneration and 2012’s Resident Evil: Damnation.
Martin Moszkowicz, chairman of the board at German film production company Constantin Film, confirmed with entertainment news magazine Variety on Sunday that it is developing a reboot film for the Resident Evil film franchise.
The franchise has earned US$1.2 billion worldwide, with Resident Evil: The Final Chapter alone grossing US$312 million worldwide.
Constantin Film produced all six films in the Paul W.S. Anderson-directed Resident Evil franchise.
