Resident Evil: Afterlife Sets September Start Date

Source:  Production Weekly
As we previously reported, Screen Gems is prepping for another Resident Evil and has set a release date of September 17, 2010. Now, Production Weekly has revealed the fourth installment, dubbed Resident Evil: Afterlife is planning an 8-week shooting schedule at Cinespace Film Studios in Toronto, that is set to begin on September 28th.

Paul W.S. Anderson is writing the script, and Milla Jovovich is set to reprise her signature role as Alice. No director has been attached.

Newkill "Underworld: Evolution" was regarding the evolution of the hybrid character, the first of his kind, I believe his name was Michael?

Milla as Alice had to be in this one, as the story is set up at the end of "Resident Evil: Extinction" when she alludes to her and her clones coming after the Umbrella Corp. located in Tokyo, Japan. Also Redfield and the survivors are still headed towards the outpost in Alaska. I hear that "Resident Evil: Afterlife" will not only be filmed in 3D, but will have the biggest budget of the series, and that's awesome, because we are about to see the Umbrella HQ being taken down and also, new creatures and characters from the RE5 game. I also hear that Tokyo and Alaska are where this film will take place, and that's awesome! I would be happy if they ended the series with "Afterlife." Great sub-title, too!

Afterlife makes sense after Extinction.

I'll still see this. But i'm really disappointed that they brought Milla back, because that character is way overdone now. So, I'm with you J.A. EPIC MOTHERFUCKING FAILURE..WOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPP WWWOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP.

Ok soooooo let me get this straight.... Anderson is currently writing the and only recently started, so no redrafts then and they are planning to shoot the film in 2 months...

Can i get an epic failure...woop woop.

Vis, to clear it up originally 'Resident Evil Extinction' was meant to be titled 'Resident Evil: Afterlife.'
But for some reason they went with Extinction for the 3rd movie and decided to use Afterlife for the 4th installment.

I concur with Newkill though a sub-title is just a sub-title, which does sometimes refer to the film's synopsis/plot. But sometimes it's just there to make the film sounds more appealing

"what I wish is that someone would make a movie about the games 4 & 5, that would be sick."

^^^^^^
Coludn't agree more :P

Agent Vis you shouldn't pay attention to subtitles these days, because they're simply pointless. Underworld Evolution, what's evolving.

Wasn't the last movie called "Extinction?" As in "no more?"

OH...Afterlife. Yeah, that's a good way to work around that.

the movies arent that bad, Im not a big fan of Milla clones but whatever... what I wish is that someone would make a movie about the games 4 & 5, that would be sick. Stick to the material, I want to see crazy things ripping out of peoples heads and stuff going mad, would make for one hell of a scary movie.
