AceShowbiz - The upcoming Resident Evil reboot directed by Zach Cregger is said to have a storyline that bears practically nothing to do with the original games. This new adaptation is expected to take a fresh approach, distancing itself from the source material that has inspired previous movies and media adaptations.

According to reports, the reboot will not follow the familiar plotlines or characters that fans of the video game series have come to know. Instead, it aims to carve out a unique narrative that stands apart from the established Resident Evil universe. This creative direction marks a significant departure from past adaptations, which often closely mirrored the game's story arcs or settings.

The decision to diverge so drastically may be an attempt to reboot the franchise with a new tone and perspective, potentially attracting a wider audience beyond longtime fans of the games. However, this also means that viewers expecting a faithful retelling of the beloved zombie survival horror series might be surprised by the changes.

As details remain limited, the full extent of how the reboot will differ is yet to be revealed. Fans and critics alike will be watching closely to see how Zach Cregger’s vision reshapes the iconic Resident Evil brand and whether it will successfully establish its own identity while retaining the essence of what made the games popular.
