Once again, horror is set to have another stunning year thanks to films like Lee Cronin’s The Mummy and Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil. Speaking of the latter, this reboot will tell an original story set in the famed game universe, with some inspiration from the second through fourth games specifically. We also know that the film will hit theaters on September 18, 2026. But now, thanks to CinemaCon 2026, we have more information about Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil reboot film, specifically a sneak peek.
It will star Austin Abrams along with Paul Walter Hauser, Kali Reis, Zach Cherry, and Johnno Wilson. It was incredibly exciting for Nerdist to get a first look at this 2026 Resident Evil movie, and here’s what we saw. A man comes to a house and asks if he can use the phone but it is to no avail. He leaves a message for someone, saying he’s sorry that they got disconnected earlier but some really f**ked up things happened and now they may not talk again. And that’s an understatement considering the grotesque monsters and gore that we see. It certainly evokes the spirit of Resident Evil games.
We anticipate that footage will hit the web pretty soon, and when it does we will have it right here for you.
