Resident Evil 2026: Is There a Post-Credits Scene?
Does Resident Evil 2026 have a post-credits scene? Here's what to know about the new movie ahead of its September 18 release.
The upcoming Resident Evil movie, set to release on September 18, 2026, brings a standalone story inspired by the popular video game franchise. Unlike previous adaptations, this film does not include a post-credits scene, according to a screening attended by Men's Journal, Yahoo Entertainment, and confirmed by Cregger himself. The movie follows Bryan, an ordinary courier played by Austin Abrams, who must survive a zombie outbreak in Raccoon City General Hospital.
While the story takes place alongside the events of the second Resident Evil game, it does not simply recreate that game's plot. Instead, the film emphasizes horror and survival elements, and introduces new characters without featuring established game characters like Leon Kennedy, Ada Wong, Chris Redfield, and Claire Redfield. Although Cregger has not ruled out future Resident Evil films, the current movie is intended as a standalone story within the wider Resident Evil universe.
