THE FIRST TEASER FOR ZACH CREGGER'S RESIDENT EVIL DOES NOT DISAPPOINT!! Aaron & Johnald react to the chilling first trailer for Resident Evil (2026), the bold new reboot of the iconic survival horror franchise directed by Zach Cregger (Barbarian, Weapons) and co-written with Shay Hatten (John Wick: Chapter 3, Army of the Dead).
This new take on Resident Evil delivers a fresh, original story inspired by the classic Capcom games, focusing on atmosphere, tension, and survival horror over blockbuster spectacle. The film stars Austin Abrams (Euphoria, The Walking Dead) as Bryan, a medical courier who finds himself trapped in the middle of a terrifying outbreak while making a routine delivery—forced to fight his way through mutated creatures and unravel a deeper conspiracy.
The trailer teases intense, claustrophobic horror sequences, including a nightmarish abandoned hospital setting, grotesque infected creatures, and a desperate fight for survival that channels the feel of playing the original games for the first time. Supporting the cast are Paul Walter Hauser (Black Bird, Richard Jewell), Kali Reis (True Detective: Night Country, Catch the Fair One), and Zach Cherry (Severance, You), each bringing new characters into this reimagined world rather than retelling familiar storylines from past films.
Unlike previous adaptations, this version leans into grounded horror, following a single protagonist caught in escalating chaos, while still honoring the lore and tone of the original games.With its stripped-down approach, brutal imagery, and psychological dread, Resident Evil (2026) looks poised to deliver one of the most faithful—and terrifying—takes on the franchise yet.
