New Resident Evil Teaser Trailer Reveals First Glimpse at Creature That Looks a Lot Like Las Plagas
A new Spanish-language trailer for Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil movie includes never-before-seen footage of a tentacle-like mutation that looks frighteningly similar to Las Plagas from RE4.
A fresh Spanish-language teaser trailer for Zach Cregger's upcoming Resident Evil film unveiled its first glimpse of a creature that bears a striking resemblance to Las Plagas from Resident Evil 4. The trailer, released on September 4, 2026, shows Bryan Hodukavich (played by Austin Abrams) entering a hospital maternity ward overtaken by a strange, fleshy substance.
Tragically, the bassinets meant for newborns have also succumbed to this substance. Another scene depicts a corpse's feet being consumed by long, wormlike vines. The corpse then rises, seemingly animated by one of these vines protruding from its cheek as the frightened Hodukavich watches in horror. The new teaser has already been compared to Las Plagas, the parasite from Resident Evil 4 known for its tentacle-like growths that evolve into terrifying beings.
Cregger has mentioned that Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 7 were the biggest influences on his creative approach to the movie. The film's promotional poster also features an X-ray image of a Doberman Pinscher, likely infected with the T-Virus, as a nod to the early games in the series.
