Cannes, May 22 (IANS): The "Resident Evil" movie franchise is set for a reboot.

Information regarding the reboot director, stars, and how the reboot would fit into the franchise narrative are being kept under wraps.

Based on the Capcom video game, the series launched in 2002 with Paul W.S. Anderson directing, and Anderson, Jeremy Bolt, Bernd Eichinger, and Samuel Hadida producing the first of a six-movie series.
