Warning: SPOILERS lie ahead for Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City
Writer/director Johannes Roberts breaks down the Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City end-credits scene and explains its video game implications. The 47 Meters Down filmmaker becomes the second to try his hand at bringing Capcom's Resident Evil games to the big screen, with Constantin Film previously working with Paul W.S. Anderson for a six-film franchise led by Milla Jovovich. Though having received mostly negative reviews through its run, the franchise did bring in over $1.2 billion in its original run, becoming the highest-grossing film series based on a video game.
Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City serves as a reboot of the film franchise and adapts the first two games in the source series as the titular Midwestern town suffers from an outbreak of a zombie virus with seeming ties to the mysterious Umbrella Corporation. Kaya Scodelario leads the cast of the film as Claire Redfield alongside Avan Jogia as Leon S. Kennedy, Robbie Amell as Chris Redfield, Hannah John-Kamen as Jill Valentine, Tom Hopper as Albert Wesker, Donal Logue as RPD Chief Brian Irons and Neal McDonough as Umbrella scientist William Birkin. Following multiple pandemic-related delays, Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City hit theaters this past November and is finally coming home.
