A Resident Evil TV series is in the works, but don't expect to see it anytime soon, as it's not planned to debut until after the next Resident Evil movie comes to theaters. This is according to a report from Variety, which says the Germany-based Constantin Film (the production company behind the Resident Evil movie franchise) is planning the spinoff as part of its increased interest in TV programming. The next Resident Evil movie, which may be the last considering it's called Final Chapter, does not yet have a release date. It was recently delayed because lead actress Milla Jovovich--who is married to Resident Evil movie director Paul W.S. Anderson--is pregnant. Variety's report mentions only that the Resident Evil TV series is in production; it does not include any details regarding a plot or which actors will appear in it. The Resident Evil movies are not re-tellings of any of the game's, though they do keep with the franchise's best-known themes. The next new Resident Evil game, Resident Evil: Revelations 2, will be released episodically--just like a TV show. Yet another Resident Evil title, an HD remake of the original Resident Evil, is also in the works for consoles and PC. Both games are expected to launch in 2015.
