Confirmed Exclusive: Resident Evil 4 Arriving in Late 2010

Update: We have just received confirmation - the release date is true!

In spite of what any of the talent involved in Resident Evil: Extinction told us during the press tour (mostly, "this is the final chapter"), the film left the door wide - and we mean WIDE open - for a fourth installment.

Late last year, Paul W.S. Anderson revealed he was indeed writing another film. Capcom was getting involved. Everyone, as he said, was "excited." Well, we've just learned from a studio insider that Sony is looking to get Resident Evil: Afterlife into theaters by September 17, 2010. That's according to an internal memo circulating through the offices there.

Will Anderson direct? Unsure. Will Milla Jovovich be back? I think it would be safe to say yes considering the last entry ended on - SPOILER ALERT - Alice clones getting ready to seek revenge on the Umbrella Corporation which was holed up in Tokyo.

More info as it comes in!

The RE games where sweet. The movies 1 and 2 where also great, but what the hell happend with the 3 movie? How does Alice burn the crows with her mind? Did anything like that happen in the games/books? What happend to Jill? Will see be in the 4 movie? i hope so. Jill is much better than Alice

ok im all for the being of mad bcuz it doesnt follow the games. but i honesty just wish they didnt cut Jill out or hired an actress that was gonna stick to the role the whole way through because Jill is one of the most popular character in all of Resident Evil (personally my favorite) n to just cut her out really really upseted me. i understand why she wasnt in it due to contract issues but thats why im saying they should have hired someone who was more reliable. not seeing Jill in resident evil 3 rly pissd me off..... ugh now i honestly dont think shes even going to be in this one evn though Milla tweetd that "Valentine MAY be bak" gettn my hopes up for nothing... like wtf!!! ugggh

guys, keep caLm. HAHA.! xD its just a movie. if you don't want the movie, don't watch it. if you Like pLaying the RE game, then, pLay it. And if you don't Like miLLa as the main character, you don't have a choice. its the production's decision. And if you were angry because the movie doesn't Look Like the game, i think, the director of this movie Like to be unique.

there are peopLe Like the movie and some are not. but pLease, respect the decision of the production of the movie.

and again, keep caLm. HAHA.! xD

i think the first film was amazing but sort of went off track from there and i agree that the films should follow the games they were amazing just start again re name it and base it on the game

i half way liked the movies but i was so so so mad when they didnt stick with the original characters,its 2010 now and last years degenaration was a pretty good movie tho it didnt realy seem resident evil like if u even know what i mean. i want them to keep going, if resident evil stopped it would be the end of the world!!!

I LOVE RESIDENT EVIL lol(:

i also agree directors an anyone thats part of the movies should play the game.

Ok now some of you are saying hey the movies are good and the director is being unique with the movies. Ok yeah so he is being unique by taking ideas from RE5 and putting them into this movie. Oh yeah he is really coming up with stuff off the top of his head. The guy is no more than a ****ing disgrace and we the fans of RE deserve a good RE movie. Don't give us that if you don't like it don't watch it crap. We watch to see how much he truly fails at making game adaptations. And I don't just mean RE, I mean all his movies. Mortal Kombat, AvP, and then coming soon, Castevania.

I'm so excited. I love resident evil. It dosent have to be like the game for it to be good. As long as Alice kickin ass that's all that matters.

i totally agreee with ttop 33 .the normal world has ended & the ppl of umbrella corp. r sitting wearing suits & shades, the value of money is gone & they r behaving as if they r still running a corp. & and r doing business.its so dumb,i expected more from r.e. 3

scrap the whole series. start over. call it biohazard. get gorge a. romero to direct it...and youll have a good series. for some of you who are not aware gorge wrote a script presented it to capcom and they declined it because it was too much like the game. just by reading the scriped it sounded awesome.....
