According to Marza, Takanori Tsujimoto is directing Resident Evil: Vendetta from a screenplay by Makoto Fukami. Takashi Shimizu executive produces the project, which features music by Kenji Kawai.
At the Tokyo Motorcycle Show, it was revealed that Kennedy will ride Ducati's XDiavel motorcycle (shown with Kennedy in the teaser image below) in the new movie.
