Production has wrapped on director Johannes Roberts' reboot of the Resident Evil film franchise, and a picture of a T-shirt wrap gift that was shared on Applied Arts FX Studio's Instagram appears to give us our first look at a zombie from the new film. Being a black and white T-shirt image, this isn't exactly how the zombie would look in the movie, but it gives an idea of how it looks – and it seems appropriately creepy.

Roberts' take on Resident Evil is a 

brand-new adaptation with faithful ties to Capcom's classic survival horror games with the story taking place on a fateful night in Raccoon City in 1998 and with the cast in the roles of the iconic game characters.

The film stars Kaya Scodelario as Claire Redfield, Hannah John-Kamen as Jill Valentine, Robbie Amell as Chris Redfield, Tom Hopper as Albert Wesker, Avan Jogia as Leon S. Kennedy, Neal McDonough as William Birkin, Donal Logue as Chief Irons, Chad Rook as Richard Aiken, and Lily Gao as Ada Wong.

This new Resident Evil is set to be released on September 9, 2021.
