As we know, Netflix cancelled their Resident Evil series after just one season. Given the cost of the series along with the lackluster reviews from critics and audiences, its cancellation wasn’t a big surprise, but the series definitely had its fans. Lance Reddick, who played Dr. Albert Wesker on Resident Evil, took to Twitter to respond to its cancellation and to give thanks to the showrunners, his fellow cast members, the executives who championed the series, and its fans.

The first live-action series in the Resident Evil franchise will be a short-lived one.
Netflix has canceled the series after a single season. The decision comes six weeks after Resident Evil’s July 14 debut and after both the streamer’s own metrics and external measurements showed the series didn’t have a long shelf life with viewers.
The series was the first live action show in the media-spanning Resident Evil universe after a host of video games and movie adaptations and a Netflix animated series that premiered in 2021. It’s set primarily in 2036, 14 years after a deadly virus caused a global apocalypse, and centers on a young woman (Ella Balinska) fighting for survival amid hordes of zombies and other monsters.
The cast also includes Lance Reddick, Tamara Smart, Siena Agudong, Adeline Rudolph, Paola Nuñez, Ahad Raza Mir, Connor Gosatti and Turlough Convery.

The live-action “Resident Evil” series at Netflix has been canceled after just one season.
The eight-episode first season premiered on Netflix July 14. The show was originally ordered to series at Netflix in 2020.
The series debuted to a mixed critical response, registering just a 55 approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes coupled with a 27 audience approval rating. Per the weekly Netflix Top 10 rankings that the streamer issues, “Resident Evil” was streamed for over 72 million hours the week it debuted, making it the number two program of the week behind only “Stranger Things” Season 4. It dropped to number three in its second week and fell out of the top 10 by week 3.
Based on the Capcom video game franchise of the same name, the show followed Jade Wesker’s (Ella Balinska) fight for survival in a world overrun by blood-thirsty infected and mind-shattering creatures. In this absolute carnage, Jade is haunted by her past in New Raccoon City,...

After just one season that premiered this past July, Netflix has already made the decision to cancel their live action “Resident Evil” series, Deadline reports this afternoon.
Deadline notes, “The news, which comes a month and a half after the series’ July 14 release, is not entirely surprising as the drama did not have a particularly strong showing on Netflix’s Top 10 and cost vs. viewing is the streamer’s leading renewal criterion.”
The idea behind the Netflix series was to adapt different parts of different Resident Evil games, opening up the universe and allowing anything to be possible within the show’s world. In fact, there had been hints that elements from Resident Evil Village would be making their way into future seasons, with an appearance from Lady Dimitrescu being teased by the creators.
Alas, Netflix’s “Resident Evil” is no more. The fate of many shows in the streaming era.

Exclusive: Netflix has opted not to order a second season of Resident Evil, its action horror series loosely based on the popular video game franchise. The news, which comes a month and a half after the series’ July 14 release, is not entirely surprising as the drama did not have a particularly strong showing on Netflix’s Top 10 and cost vs. viewing is the streamer’s leading renewal criterion.
Running partly in the shadow of mega genre hit Stranger Things, which was released within the same time frame, Resident Evil debuted at No. 2 with an Ok 72.7 million hours viewed. But It did not deliver the big Week 2 bump one would like to see for a new series as word of mouth spreads, raking in 73.3M hours viewed in its second week for a No. 3 finish before dropping precipitously and falling out of the Top 10 after only three weeks.

The end of the world has arrived in the official trailer for Resident Evil, which premieres Thursday, July 14 on Netflix.
In the sneak peek above, survivors battle their way through an apocalypse that can be traced back to — big surprise here — the Umbrella Corporation. The company’s new antidepressant Joy contained the t-Virus, which essentially turns those infected into zombies. And it’s not just affecting people; the Joy drug has unleashed terrifying evil of different forms into the world.

“Resident Evil” is heading to the small screen, but the monsters appear to be bigger than ever. Netflix debuted a new trailer for their live-action “Resident Evil” series Monday as a part of their jam-packed Geeked Week, and the new footage offers some hints at plot details, along with plenty of mystery and even more monsters.
A new approach to the long-running video game, film and animation franchise, Netflix’s series (the first live-action series in franchise history) follows Jade Wesker (Ella Balinska) – daughter of familiar “Resident Evil” character Albert Wesker (played by Lance Reddick) – as she “fights for survival in a world overrun by the blood-thirsty infected and insane creatures. In this absolute carnage, Jade is haunted by her past in New Raccoon City, by her father’s chilling connections to the Umbrella Corporation but mostly by what happened to her sister, Billie.”

Just a year after the premiere of its last live-action adaptation, the “Resident Evil” franchise has risen from the grave in the first trailer for the upcoming Netflix horror series.
Based on the long-running Capcom survival horror franchise, “Resident Evil” stars Lance Reddick as Albert Wesker, one of the main antagonists of the original video game series. Tamara Smart and Ella Balinska portray the younger and older versions of Wesker’s daughter Jade, while Siena Agudong, Adeline Rudolph, Paola Nuñez, Ahad Raza Mir, Connor Gossatti and Turlough Convery round out the cast in undisclosed roles.
The plot for the new series has been kept under wraps, but the teaser trailer, set to the famous 1971 pop song “I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony),” reveals that the show will be split in between two timelines. The first, set in 2022, sees Jade moving with her father and...

“Resident Evil” is back, and this time it’s heading to streaming. Netflix debuted the teaser trailer for its live-action series adaptation of the hit video game and film franchise on Thursday, revealing the first footage from the upcoming adaptation — and it’s jam-packed with all the “Resident Evil” hallmarks — the nefarious doings of the Umbrella Corporation, the spread of the T-Virus, blood-thirsty mutant animals and, of course, a whole lot of zombies.
After a glimpse at the false promise of Raccoon City’s 2022 utopia, the trailer jumps to post-zombie-outbreak London in 2036, delivering an action-packed (and blood-soaked) glimpse at the first live-action “Resident Evil” series. All eight episodes debut globally on Netflix on July 14.
No doubt, “Resident Evil” fans will be searching for Easter eggs in the new trailer – and while you’re at it, keep an eye out for a couple of hidden opportunities to hunt down more sneak peeks online.

Netflix’s home of all things geek – hey! just like Wamg – confirmed today that a scripted live action series inspired by Capcom’s massive Resident Evil franchise is coming to Netflix.
Building on one of the most popular, best selling survival horror video games of all time, Resident Evil will tell a brand new story across two timelines:
In the first timeline, fourteen-year-old sisters Jade and Billie Wesker are moved to New Raccoon City. A manufactured, corporate town, forced on them right as adolescence is in full swing. But the more time they spend there, the more they come to realize that the town is more than it seems and their father may be concealing dark secrets. Secrets that could destroy the world.
Cut to the second timeline, well over a decade into the future: there are less than fifteen million people left on Earth. And more than six billion...

After a couple of middling episodes, Flesh And Blood feels like a return to grisly, gory form for The Following...
This review contains spoilers.
3.8 Flesh And Blood
Well, last week I asked the people from The Following for more blood and craziness. Little did I know I was going to get what I asked for and more. There's nothing to be upset with about this week's visit to the FBI and serial killer chess match, at least from the front of insane spectacle. If you've ever wanted to see someone dead on what looks like a toilet with his brain meat exposed to the world or if you've ever wanted to watch someone feed body parts into a meat grinder, this is definitely the show for you this week. It's nice to see, as this is something The Following was always good at, and if Hannibal can show corpses being vivisected in an artistic way,...
