RESIDENT EVIL, the upcoming reinvention of the horror franchise directed by Zach Cregger , is set to screen at Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas.

The film is scheduled to hit theaters exclusively on September 18, 2026. It is a survival horror title rated R by the Motion Picture Association for strong bloody violence, gore and language throughout.

In an all-new story, Resident Evil follows Bryan (Austin Abrams), a medical courier who unwittingly finds himself in an action-packed, non-stop race for survival as one fateful, horrifying night collapses around him in chaos.
