A decade after Milla Jovovich first starting shooting guns and kicking asses as Alice in the videogame adaption Resident Evil, here we are in 2012 and a fifth installment in the franchise is going to continue in that rich tradition of gun-shooting and ass-kicking with Re5ident Evil: Retribution.  Almost two weeks ago, Screen Gems released the very first teaser trailer, which featured Alice standing atop the White House.  Today, the studio has dropped the first teaser poster and a bit of promotional artwork.

Not many franchises make it to a fifth installment, but a decade after the videogame adaptation Resident Evil, here we are at Resident Evil: Retribution, or, as we recently discovered it's titled, Re5ident Evil: Retribution.  The fourth sequel is set to arrive in September, and the very first teaser trailer has arrived online today.

Have you ever noticed that the number 5 quite distinctly resembles the letter S?  No really, if you squint, they look like the same thing.  Screen Gems is out to prove the resemblance with the title to the fifth film in the Resident Evil franchise based on the ongoing videogame series.  This installment was previously referred to as Resident Evil: Retribution, but a new official synopsis issued today unveiled the new, jazzed up title, Re5ident Evil: Retribution.

Just today you may have seen a poster featuring Kate Beckinsale wielding weaponry in black leather on the poster for third sequel Underworld Awakening, and now you can peek at unofficial images featuring Milla Jovovich in black leather, tights, and a barrel full of buckles on the set of Resident Evil: Retribution.  That would be the fourth sequel in the action-horror franchise that began back in 2002 with videogame adaptation Resident Evil.  So today you get two dark clothes-loving leading ladies rocking guns in two different series, one which pits vampires against werewolves and another which pits human survivors against postapocalyptic undead hoards.  So take a look at Jovovich back in character as the unkillable heroine Alice, sporting the emblem of the evil Umbrella corporation on her buckle-laden outfit.
