What better way to spend Friday the 13th than on a zombie movie set? Of course, the vicious creatures weren't on the loose or anything, but the scare factor was still high.The much-anticipated sequel to the 'Resident Evil' trilogy -- 'Resident Evil: Afterlife' -- is in the works in Toronto, and will be released in August 2010. Unfortunately, there isn't much information we can give you yet (details are embargoed until next July!), but we can at least confirm the franchise's hotness level has been cranked up a few notches.
The lead role of Alice is still being masterfully played by Milla Jovovich, and as if that wasn't hot enough, joining in the zombie butt-kicking is 'Heroes' star Ali Larter, who's reprising her role from 'Resident Evil: Extinction.' Female fans will be getting some eye candy, as 'Prison Break' hunk Wentworth Miller has joined the cast, along with stacked Canadian newcomer Shawn Roberts (who's already worked with zombies in 'Diary of the Dead').
The director-producer tag team of Paul W.S. Anderson and Jeremy Bolt, who brought you such classics as 'Mortal Kombat' and 'AVP: Alien vs. Predator', are incredibly excited to get this fourth 'Resident Evil' installment into theaters. We'd love to tell you more, but sadly, we're going to have to wait.
Until then, enjoy this interview with Milla Jovovich for 'A Perfect Getaway,' her most recent thriller.

Hello! I'm the writer of this article...and I received a nasty email from a reader who was upset that there wasn't more information disclosed in the article. Just to reiterate, I won't be able to release any further information about this movie until July 2010...I'm under obligation to keep the information embargoed until then. If I go against this, then I get in serious trouble. Hope this makes sense, and I can't wait to tell you guys how awesome this movie will be!

These film's so far - are sick and are nothing like the games, as I am a fan of the game's and Ada Wong - as I am going to be a film Writer - when I leave my College. Then I can make better Resident evil film's with Ada Wong, being the lead heroine in them.
They must be idiot's making film's like that and they are Re - booting the film's, well they shouldn't !!. Unless if there better - anyway it's up to them of what they think. Also that Alice charactor shouldn't of been invented either - as I just wanted a lead charactor from the game's.
I am pleased with Capcom - with the games, but not Paul and his team,as the film's should'nt of been made. Anyway it's up to them Loon's
