The upcoming Resident Evil movie, helmed by director Zach Cregger, is set to offer a distinct piece of movie-themed merchandise for theatergoers. Regal cinema patrons will have the opportunity to purchase a popcorn bucket designed to resemble an organ-transport bag, a prop featured in the film carried by the character played by Austin Abrams.
The promotional popcorn bucket is capable of holding a large quantity of popcorn. Notably, fine print accompanying the item clarifies that it does not include a beating heart, a feature humorously depicted in its associated promotional imagery. The price for this unique bucket has not yet been disclosed.
Tickets for the Resident Evil movie became available for purchase on September 1, coinciding with director Zach Cregger's planned Reddit AMA session where he will address fan questions. Additionally, T-Mobile subscribers may have the chance to obtain movie tickets for as little as $5. The film is scheduled to premiere in theaters on September 18 and is anticipated to achieve the highest opening weekend in the franchise's history. The cast includes Austin Abrams, Zach Cherry, Paul Walter Hauser, Kali Reis, and Johnno Wilson. The screenplay was written by Zach Cregger and Shay Hatten, known for their work on "John Wick" and "Army of the Dead."
