'Resident Evil' live-action series for Netflix in the works

This is not a drill: a "Resident Evil" live-action series is in the works!

Netflix confirmed the project by posting a photo of the script on the NX Facebook page.

"When the Wesker kids move to New Raccoon City, the secrets they uncover might just be the end of everything. Resident Evil, a new live action series based on Capcom’s legendary survival horror franchise, is coming to Netflix," the post said.

The series is written by "Supernatural" executive producer and co-showrunner Andrew Dabb, and directed by Bronwen Hughes. Constantin Film, the studio is behind the Resident Evil movies, is producing the film.

According to Deadline, the series will feature a brand new story across two timelines.

Fourteen-year-old sisters Jade and Billie Wesker are moved to New Raccoon City, a town that is more than it seems. Over a decade later, billions of people and animals infected with the "T-virus" roam the earth as monsters.

Capcom released survival horror game "Resident Evil" in 1996, and it went on to become one of the best-selling video game franchises of all time.

It was adapted into a film franchise by Paul W. S. Anderson, starting with "Resident Evil" in 2002. —JCB, GMA News
