Resident Evil: Afterlife gets bumped back

Paul W.S. Anderson’s fourth installment of the video game adapted series is getting two weeks pushed forward in it’s release month of September for this year. The reasoning behind this is MGM’s own collision with itself on the big screen. If Resident Evil: Afterlife were to be released on September 24th of this year, it would have coincided with the release of Cabin in the Woods, another MGM horror property.

Another reason why Resident Evil: Afterlife is going to be shown on September 10th as well is due to the 3D that’s coming into play with the latest feature. If the two were to be released on the same weekend, that would be forcing them to split digital 3D screens, reports ShockTillYouDrop. Milla Jovovich comes back in the fourth film reprising her role as Alice along with talent such as Ali Larter, Wentworth Miller and others.
