Having first been announced way back in August of 2020, Netflix is nearly ready to unveil its upcoming Resident Evil live-action adaptation. While there’s still no trailer, the publisher has confirmed the show will be available for viewing on July 14. The news comes by way of a teaser announcement, which simply features a vial full of blood containing the T-Virus against a yellow background. There’s also a second image sent via a press release that features a pill with the word ‘Joy’ written on it.
