Everything To Know About Netflix Series ‘Resident Evil’

Netflix is bringing the world of zombie-ridden adventure video games into live-action! There have been 24 video game releases and seven movies, so far, based on Resident Evil. However, it will be the first time that the Tv series has been created. Before it hit the streaming platform, here’s everything to know.

Resident Evil Plot
The live-action Resident Evil series is set across two timelines, 2022, the year of the global T-virus outbreak, and 2036, 14 years later. Resident Evil Netflix synopsis read, “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.”

Meanwhile, the trailer revealed that this apocalyptic timeline will not be the only one the show will be focusing on. The show will also show Jade and Billie moving to Raccoon City in 2022 when Umbrella is merely a scandal-plagued company trying to resuscitate its image.
