Resident Evil is inspired by the Resident Evil movie 7 - Ultimate Guide

In an interview with Discussing Film, Russo was asked about the inspiration for his draft. "Obviously I'm a big fan of the saga, so working on this has been a lot of fun,They have made six movies before, Resident Evil - and want to do something different. His idea was to make it terrifying again, like a classic horror movie in the style of James Wan, that was the idea, so Resident Evil 7 was a touchstone for the draft " Russo does not despise the facet of action of the films of Paul Anderson - now in charge of Monster Hunter - but he assures that his vision for the saga is first terror and then action


The original saga was always considered a license mainly of terror and action as secondary. It had to make sense to return to the roots of terror. Russo's work would almost have ended and he does not know what will happen now. "I sent my draft to the producers and they were happy, but in the end they'll do whatever they want with the license, I'm not involved in the film anymore."
