Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil reboot, set for a September 18 wide release after a Fantastic Fest premiere, has drawn strong early presales and tracking that position it for a franchise-record domestic opening. Deadline reports a $35 million baseline with first-day sales momentum that could reach $50 million, fueled by the director’s horror track record from Weapons and Barbarian, R-rated appeal to young male audiences, a compact 93-minute runtime enabling multiple daily screenings, and Sony’s IMAX push. Historical Resident Evil openings peaked at $26.6 million, but this original-story entry faces typical genre variability and competition, leaving market-implied odds tightly bunched between sub-$50 million and $70 million-plus outcomes.
