It was like from that moment on i think we all knew where we were going with this movie because it was such a wonderful cinematic experience with the tone the constant dark rain sort of aspect of the game

Roberts has put more focus on keeping the atmosphere and surrounding very dark and creepy. Just like in the games. “We very much took the tone of the remake of the second game and made that our template for this movie”, Roberts said.

Major characters such as Claire Redfield, Chris Redfield, Leon Kennedy & Jill Valentine are all set to be part of the “ensemble”.
