Netflix’s live-action Resident Evil series gets a couple of teaser trailers

Year 2036 – 14 years after a deadly virus caused a global apocalypse, 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.

Check out the trailers below.

Showrunner Andrew Dabb (Supernatural) spoke to EW about the new show and said that “the games are our backstory. Everything that happens in the games exists in this world. That includes the latest entry, Resident Evil: Village. “We may not get there until season 5, but it is in our world,” he continues. “As we’re moving ahead and talking about scripts for season 2, the village is a resource we can draw on.”

The new show stars Lance Reddick, Ella Balinska, Tamara Smart, Siena Agudong, Adeline Rudolph, Paola Nuñez, Ahad Raza Mir, Connor Gossatti, and Turlough Convery.
