As I informed all y’all back in October, Paul W.S. Anderson isn’t letting go of the RESIDENT EVIL franchise anytime soon. The man is currently penning RESIDENT EVIL 4 (it’ll no doubt be given a subtitle in the near future) and talked to IGN about it a little.

“I’m writing a script right now. The script side is happening… It’s going to be difficult what’s happening when until the whole SAG [strike] thing is resolved. But that’s something I’m working on right now. Everyone at [game developer] Capcom has had their input into the idea and they’re all very excited. I don’t want to tell you what it is but it’s very exciting.”

Are you excited yet? No?! You’re a soulless block of wood my friend… Maybe this will help: “Once again we’re doing it completely with the blessing of the videogame company. We got a lot of flack [on the sequels] for, ‘Why isn’t the movie set in the mansion just exactly like the very first videogame?’ That’s just not progression for me. As the Resident Evil videogames themselves have developed in leaps and bounds — it’s like when we did the last movie people were like, ‘Resident Evil doesn’t take place in the desert. What the (expletive) is this?’ Well, where does Resident Evil take place? Does it take place in Raccoon City exclusively? Well, I don’t think so because the game has been in Antarctica, in Raccoon City, now it’s in Africa.”

There. Now we know we’re either going to Antarctica or Africa. You can start jumping for joy now.
