The first look at the upcoming Resident Evil movie reboot "Welcome To Raccoon City" has been revealed on Monday.
The photos showed the new cast of the live-action movie, which featured Kaya Scodelario as Claire Redfield, Avan Jogia as Leon Kennedy, Tom Hopper as Albert Wesker, Nathan Dales as Brad Vickers, Hannah John-Kamen as Jill Valentine, Robbie Amell as Chris Redfield, and Marina Mazepa as Lisa Trevor.
This will be Trevor's first time to appear on the big screen.
“Welcome to Raccoon City” is written and directed by Johannes Roberts. It is produced by Robert Kulzer, James Harris, and Hartley Gorenstein.
The movie will serve as an origin story to the Resident Evil games and focus on "Resident Evil" and "Resident Evil 2".
In an interview with IGN on Monday, Roberts stated that the movie will perge from the prior Resident Evil movies starring Milla Jovovich because it will focus more on horror rather than being an action movie.
"I was hugely influenced in particular by the remake of the second game and I really wanted to capture the atmosphere-drenched tone that it had. It was so cinematic. The previous movies were very bright and shiny whereas this movie was dark and grimy, entirely shot at night." he added.
The movie was previously set to be released in early September, which is also the release date of Marvel's adventure “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings”
Set in the late 1990s, the plot centered around a small group of survivors in Raccoon City, who must work together to uncover the truth behind the pharmaceutical giant Umbrella Corporation and make it through the night.
"Welcome to Raccoon City" hit the theaters on November 24.
