Will Resident Evil be Netflix’s Walking Dead?

1. Chandler Riggs as Leon would be pretty interesting

2. As long as they follow the games this time, I'm in. I'm curious about the upcoming movie reboot, though. Are they going to cancel that and just do a series? Or will they do both? If they do both, they're going to have to be very careful how they approach each so that they're not too similar. I'd rather see a movie franchise adapt the games than a Netflix series, though.

3. I hate the idea of focusing on Umbrella. They should be the shadowy organization in the background, pulling strings but rarely seen up close.

   The story should focus on its (NON-superpowered) main characters as they struggle to survive and solve the mystery of whatever scary predicament they're in — just like the games.

4. LOOSLEY BASED

5. Huge Resident Evil fan, won't be getting my hopes up however… Also won't expect any real longevity out of it. I shall color myself cautiously optimistic, and hope to be pleasantly surprised!

6. Hopefully better than the walking dead.

7. The ending of this video didn't feel right… she was trying to support you really bad ideas then you made her look bad, should've at least edit that. Like come on man… 😉

8. Yeah reboot the movies but do not make it a Netflix series. That will just ruin it. focus on make the games first through.

9. TWD has been on netflix tho….

10. Will gonna be better than Walking Dead. Walling dead only have walkers. Resident evil we have everything turned. More viruses, etc.

11. The 2nd movie was the closest to resident evil in raccoon city. Which made it the best film of the group automatically

12. Season 1 should be about the virus development and mansion outbreak. I think its enough source for that, starting on original trilogy of r.e, umbrella chronicle, code veronica and more
    Season 2 concern to raccon city last days, its not happen on one night, at least four or five days until nuke fall. Enough source like trilogy re, operation raccon city and both outbreak games

13. So the movies you choose to criticise and call embarrassing is the first couple films? I'm sorry but as bad as they were they were at least watchable. Those later sequels are some of the worst action films I've ever seen.

14. As long as the main character is trans….

15. Please no. No. Someone make a petition to stop this.

16. IF this does well, maybe we could get more shows based on games…? I'm Ron Burgundy?

17. It's not a surprise it was rumoured a few years ago…

18. It wont b lile WALKING DEAD…. Itll b WAAYYY BETTER THAN THAT SHPW

19. Do a RE: Outbreak series

20. Season 1 – RE1
    Season 2 – RE2
    Season 3 – RE3
    Season 4 – RE code veronica
    Season 5 – RE 0 (to close the umbrella saga)
    Season 6 – RE 4
    Season 7 – RE 5
    Season 8 – RE 6 (leon)
    Season 9 – RE 6 (Chris)
    (Throw in Jake and Ada in both seasons)

21. I hope they don't F it up like the movies

22. I want Ethan Winters Lmao

23. As long as CHRIS REDFIELD IS THE HERO AND NOT A SIDE CHUMP LIKE THE CRAPPY MOVIES.

24. This new series should follow the steps of fear the walking dead and show why the outbreak happened

25. Finally make resident evil characters who haven’t met in the game meet in the series!

26. I’m not to excited for this ?

27. Loosely based was all I needed to hear.

28. I think the show should center on the RCPD trying to saves as many people as possible and fighting zombies.

29. Can they please make it more like the game? Less action but more back story, mystery, suspense and thriller.

30. What about the Reboot Film of Resident Evil?

31. If its like the movies its already DEAD.

32. Netflix? they're problably gonna mix the character race again…

33. Isn’t that a New Zealand accent?

34. The Resident Evil universe has much more potential as horror TV series than Walking Dead just because the T-virus can cause all kinds of mutations. In TWD it's just dumb slow zombies. Smart move by Netflix. I don't see any issues with Constantin Film as developer, right on the contrary – it'll help the series stay closer to the original franchise.

35. I thought it was cancelled??? Wasnt it supposed to be called arkley and take place before the outbreak or something???
