It looks like Paul W.S. Anderson is pregnant with Resident Evil 4, but is waiting to see if Sony will let him have the baby. We get the scoop from MTV:
“Resident Evil: Extinction,” the third video-game to big screen adaptation in the popular series will likely not be the last, Anderson said, although talks for a fourth film are still in the very earliest stages of development. “I’m just starting to talk to Sony about it,” Anderson confessed. “I don’t even know if anything will come of it, but there’s a possibility it might happen.”
It would seem like a sure thing given the ending of “Extinction,” which saw Alice (Milla Jovovich) beside herself with rage — literally, thanks to hundreds of perfect clones – promising to travel to the Umbrella Corporation’s headquarters in Japan. But Anderson, who scripted the first three films, says a concrete story hasn’t yet been decided upon. In fact, it’s coming up with a plausible, kick-ass story that’s momentarily holding him up.
I wasn’t that thrilled with the first Resident Evil film, and haven’ t been in a rush to see the sequels. I know that some of our readers are fans of the franchise however, and I hope that this is good news for you! Sadly it really isn’t much news at all. We just discovered that Paul is interested in a film, and hopes it happens.
With luck Sony will say yay or nay shortly so we have a difinitive answer for you. In the meantime we can rest assured that Paul is thinking about ways Mila can kill zombies…… totally nude!??
