The 2026 Resident Evil movie, directed by Zach Cregger, is set to be adapted from the popular video game-inspired franchise. The series has already produced seven films and remains the most successful property in Constantin Film's history. The film, which follows a medical courier named Bryan (Abrams), follows an action-packed race for survival as one fateful night collapses around him in chaos. Cregger described Abrams' leading role as "an avatar" from the game, describing him as "just a normal guy" who gets sucked into a nightmare. The first trailer for the film was released in April 2026.
