Synopsis
Picking up immediately after the events in Resident Evil: Retribution, humanity is on its last legs after Alice is betrayed by Wesker in Washington D.C. As the only survivor of what was meant to be humanity’s final stand against the undead hordes, Alice must return to where the nightmare began – Raccoon City, where the Umbrella Corporation is gathering its forces for a final strike against the only remaining survivors of the apocalypse. In a race against time Alice will join forces with old friends, and an unlikely ally, in an action packed battle with undead hordes and new mutant monsters. Between losing her superhuman abilities and Umbrella’s impending attack, this will be Alice’s most difficult adventure as she fights to save humanity, which is on the brink of oblivion
Filming & Release
Principal photography on the film began on September 18, 2015 in Cape Town / Hartbeespoort Dam, South Africa. During filming, Jovovich’s stunt double Olivia Jackson was severely injured when her motorcycle collided with a camera crane, leaving her in a medically-induced coma for two weeks. Among Jackson’s injuries were cerebral trauma, a crushed face, a severed artery in her neck, a paralyzed arm, several broken ribs, a shattered scapula, a broken clavicle, torn fingers with a thumb that needed to be amputated, and five nerves torn out of her spinal cord. Jackson announced in December 2015 that her paralyzed left arm will need to be amputated. A second accident occurred during filming on December 3 when crew member Ricardo Cornelius was crushed to death by one of the film’s props, a U.S. Army issue Hummer, while on set. Filming ended on December 9, 2015.
