Taking a cue from Prometheus, a teaser video for the upcoming Resident Evil: Retribution trailer has just been released. If you're a big fan of the series, the brief bits of new footage might help tide you over until the full trailer release. We're also using this opportunity to remind readers about the live webchat with Milla Jovocich taking place this Thursday:

RESIDENT EVIL: RETRIBUTION is the fifth installment of the wildly successful film franchise that has grossed nearly $700 million worldwide to date. Screen Gems will release RESIDENT EVIL: RETRIBUTION, in state-of-the art 3D, in the United States on September 14, 2012. Sony Pictures Releasing International will handle distribution in most international territories. Metropolitan Film Export will release in France and Constantin Film will release in Germany.

In RESIDENT EVIL: RETRIBUTION, the Umbrella Corporation's deadly T-virus continues to ravage the Earth, transforming the global population into legions of the flesh eating Undead. The human race's last and only hope, ALICE (Milla Jovovich), awakens in the heart of Umbrella's most clandestine operations facility and unveils more of her mysterious past as she delves further into the complex. Without a safe haven, Alice continues to hunt those responsible for the outbreak; a chase that takes her from Tokyo to New York, Washington, D.C. and Moscow, culminating in a mind-blowing revelation that will force her to rethink everything that she once thought to be true. Aided by newfound allies and familiar friends, Alice must fight to survive long enough to escape a hostile world on the brink of oblivion. The countdown has begun."
