TLDR

One post says Zach Cregger’s ‘Resident Evil’ has crossed $250 million worldwide and projects a finish above $400 million, with releases in China and Japan still to come. Another says Cregger pitched Constantin Film his story before writing the screenplay with Shay Hatten, aiming to capture the games’ scarce ammunition and escalating horror rather than adapt an existing storyline.

@TheCinestheticZach Cregger didn’t get hired to make a RESIDENT EVIL movie and then figure out the story. He already had the entire movie in his head. Cregger knew the beginning, middle and end, then went directly to Constantin Film, which controls the franchise rights, and pitched them the story before writing a single page of the screenplay. They said yes, and only then did he write it with Shay Hatten. The really interesting part is that he deliberately avoided adapting Leon, Claire or any existing game storyline. Cregger wanted to capture what it actually feels like to play RESIDENT EVIL: starting with almost nothing, conserving ammunition, moving from one location to another and watching the horror constantly escalate. So RESIDENT EVIL (2026) wasn’t conceived as another remake of the games. It was Cregger asking: What if a RESIDENT EVIL movie actually worked like a RESIDENT EVIL game?2h
