Netflix’s resident Evil<\/em> series has been canceled a little over a month after its initial debut, according to a report from deadline<\/em>. The streamer reportedly decided against renewing the series due to lackluster ratings and viewership.<\/p>\n

Like the many other resident Evil<\/em> adaptations, Netflix’s live-action series attempts to put yet another spin on the video game franchise it’s based on. The show, which was helped by supernatural<\/em>‘s Andrew Dabb, flashes between two different timelines, centering around Umbrella executive Albert Wesker (Lance Reddick) and his two daughters (played by Tamara Smart and Siena Agudong). <\/p>\n

In our review of the series, my colleague Charles Pulliam-Moore notes that it \u201ckeeps things feeling fresh up to a point,\u201d but it’s dragged down by a \u201cpredictable plot that ultimately suffers from being such a late entry in the modern-day zombie craze.\u201d resident Evil<\/em> made Netflix’s top 10 list of its most-watched shows the week it debuted and the two weeks that followed, but largely fell off the map after that. It also doesn’t help that it premiered only a couple of months after the season four debut of Stranger Things<\/em>which potentially stole some of resident Evil<\/em>‘s spotlight.<\/p>\n

In addition to its live-action adaptation, Netflix also has an animated four-part series Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness <\/em>that it was released last year. The series focuses heavily on the lore of the resident Evil<\/em> franchise and was also met with mixed reviews. Even if Netflix’s live-action resident Evil<\/em> wasn’t quite the hit it intended, the streamer has several other video game adaptations on tap, including ones based on Horizon Zero Dawn<\/em>, Tomb Raider<\/em>, Far Cry<\/em>and bioshock<\/em>. Netflix already has an anime based on Castlevania<\/em> and recently debuted an animated adaptation of Tekken<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
