Hey all you
Resident
Evil fans - yes, all six of you: details have been firmed up for the third installment in the series, and lots
of the major figures are coming back. Woo hoo!
A talentless hack Paul W.S. Anderson wrote the screenplay (as he did for parts one and
two) to be directed by
Russell Mulcahy, and queen of all white action
chicks
Milla Jovovich is back as Alice, which is all that really
matters. She'll be wandering from Nevada to Alaska, all the while dodging zombies, lab rats, and "the minions of
the perpetually scheming Dr. Isaacs." And, because they apparently aren't getting offered any other jobs,
Mike Epps,
Oded Fehr,
and
Iain Glen are all coming back for the adventure. (As an aside,
what's the deal with Glen? He's a good actor who's done some
interesting stuff,
and yet he can't get paid for anything that's not a video game movie.)
Though the title of this one is a
rather final-sounding
Resident
Evil: Extinction, only a fool would assume it's going to be the last installment. I mean, Milla and Anderson
broke up, and this one is
still being made - if the death of love didn't kill the series off, what could?
