Kind of funny how, on the same day she ends
up on a poster on which you
might not expect to see her, Milla Jovovoich doesn’t appear on one that you
would. But there it is below, an international poster from Thailand
for the upcoming Resident Evil: Afterlife. Giving his
best Risky
Business-meets-Blade look
is Shawn Roberts as baddie Albert Wesker. Looks like he’s none too
happy with some Redfields (Wentworth Miller, Ali Larter) and is looking to go
all T-virus on ’em.
The official synopsis: In a world ravaged by a virus
infection, turning its victims into the
Undead, Alice (Jovovich), continues on her
journey to find survivors and
lead them to safety. Her deadly battle with the
Umbrella Corporation
reaches new heights, but Alice gets some
unexpected help from an old
friend. A new lead that promises a safe haven
from the Undead takes them
to Los Angeles, but when they arrive the city is
overrun by thousands
of Undead – and Alice and her comrades are about
to step into a deadly
trap.
Although
it’s a little Matrix-y, I kind of like the simplicity of this
poster. Roberts sells the flick just with a look. Resident Evil:
Afterlife also stars Kim Coates, Sergio Peris-Mencheta, Spencer
Locke, Boris Kodjoe and Sienna Guillory and opens in 3D on September
10th.

All I want is for Wesker to be the bad ass he was in the games. If i get that I'll be happy having dropped my $9.50
You'd be surprised how little people give a shit about non-A list movie stars once you get a few clicks off the main path. Likely nobody in the office who freelanced this Photoshop job thinks of Milla Jovavich as a star – she was in that Bruce Willis movie 15 years ago and she was ONE of the girls in the first three movies, but not the one who was in Avatar or on Heroes. Since this poster looks kinda cool, the Thai reps for Sony gave it a pass.
Poster looks like shit. Movie will be shit.
this movie looks like a matrix copying tv movie that was made in the 90s. someone tell Paul Anderson that its not retro yet.
I'm fairly certain that anyone that could be enticed by ANY marketing for a Paul Anderson or Resident Evil has no human ability to discern shit from non-shit. In that regard, I'm surprised Sony even went to the effort they did with this shitty, shitty poster; stenciled text on newsprint would have more than sufficed.
to gayness. really? reflections in the sunglasses? totally fucking amatuer…
