Resident Evil TV Series Storyline (Plot/Synopsis):
The series’ main plot is spread out over two points in time – 2022 and 2036, with a gap of some 14 years. The “past” plotline deals with the struggles of 14-year-old half-twins Billie and Jade, the children of Dr. Albert Wesker and conceived through suspicious circumstances. Their lives take a dramatic turn when Albert is awarded an executive position at the struggling Umbrella Corporation that once employed him, and they move to Umbrella’s planned community, New Raccoon City. While there the two girls stumble onto the dark secrets behind their origins and Umbrella’s dark legacy, while their father coordinates a response to the outbreak of a retroviral bioweapon called T-virus.
In the “present” of 2038, the T-virus has reduced human civilization to 15 million refugees living in walled city-states, surrounded by the six billion “Zeroes” who contracted the disease and became roaming gangs of cannibal mutants. The most powerful organization left on Earth is the Umbrella Corporation, backed by its military arsenal, who are conducting a global manhunt for Jade.
