Nellie Andreeva reports - "Resident Evil is headed to television.  I have learned that Netflix is developing a scripted series based on the hit action horror franchise.  I hear the series will be a Netflix global original.  German production and distribution company Constantin Film, which is behind the Resident Evil  movies loosely based on the Capcom video game series, is the studio.  Search is underway for a showrunner to shepherd the adaptation... The drama series will explore the dark inner workings of the Umbrella Corporation and the new world order caused by the outbreak of the T-virus.  While the series is in early stages, the series is expected to incorporate all of Resident Evil's signature elements, including action sequences and 'easter eggs.'... Paul W.S. Anderson was behind the six movie series, which starred Milla Jovovich and wrapped in 2016 with Resident Evil: The Final Chapter.  Since then Constantin Film brass have discussed plans to reboot the franchise, including as a TV series."
