Sony has released the trailer for the upcoming horror film “Resident Evil.” Based on Capcom’s hugely popular horror video games, “Resident Evil” is co-written by Shay Hatten and “Weapons” helmer Zach Cregger, who also serves as director.

The film does not feature established characters from the “Resident Evil” universe such as Leon S. Kennedy or Jill Valentine, as Cregger aimed to create a new and original story. The plot will introduce a new protagonist—a courier delivering a package—who finds himself in the middle of a Raccoon City outbreak. The original “Resident Evil” was released as a PlayStation game in 1994, but was later made available on several different consoles. There have been more than a dozen sequels and remakes of the games, including this year’s “Resident Evil Requiem.”
