Live-action Resident Evil Netflix series premiere date

The live-action Resident Evil Netflix series premiere date is set for July 2022, the company has announced.

While the live-action Resident Evil Netflix series premiere date is finally going down on July 14th, 2022, we still haven’t actually seen footage from the show to this date – nearly two years since its reveal to when it premieres.

The live-action series is not to be confused with the upcoming live action movie, the live action series takes place across two periods of time. In one, 14 year old Jade and Billie Wesker move to New Racoon City; a “manufactured, corporate town” as per the previous report.

The sisters slowly realize that the town has its apocalyptic secrets, and that their father may be hiding them. The other period is over a decade into the future where only 15 million people are alive, the T-virus has ravaged over 6 billion people and animals.

Previously confirmed casting had fans confused or upset that Albert Wesker had his race swapped, a similar decision Netflix has made with their other live-action adaptations for games and books.
