The popcorn bag reveal comes on the heels today of Sony’s release of a new poster for Resident Evil.
Weapons and Barbarian director Zach Cregger has been busy promoting Resident Evil with his main actor Austin Abrams. Cregger recently revealed that Abrams nearly died while they were shooting one particular zombie scene.
The filmmaker also conceded that he “took liberties” to make his movie better even though he knows Resident Evil 2, the game his film is inspired by, didn’t have snow or iPhones in it.
Cregger has also confirmed that his Resident Evil contains first-person sequences and that the games’ sinister Umbrella Corp. is indeed referenced in the film.
Hitting theaters on September 18, Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil is on track to have the biggest opening weekend of any movie in the Resident Evil film franchise.
