Far from being a stranger to the world of video secret plan films , Jovovich splendidly played the super - heroine Alice in all six of theResident Evilmovies that released from 2002 to 2017 . Her hubby - filmmaker , Paul W.S. Anderson , similarly directed four of the six films in the zombie survival series and wrote the remaining two , in add-on to lending his services as a manufacturer . Of course , he ’d already veer his teeth on a video recording game adaptation before that , back when he helmed the 1995Mortal Kombatadaptation .
For their latest coaction , Jovovich and Anderson are adaptingMonster Hunter , a video biz property that Capcom launched in 2004 .

Both Jovovich and Jaa have received their ownMonster Huntermovie poster , as you may see below . The former asterisk in the movie as Lt . Artemis , the head of an elite United Nations military team who ’re transpired through a vena portae into a newfangled worldly concern populated by jumbo monsters . In an travail to retrieve their way home , Artemis and her squad eventually bump and work alongside " The Hunter " ( Jaa ) , a mysterious warrior possessing"unique skills"which have allowed him to survive this hostile landscape painting for some time .
Jovovich and Jaa are join in the film ’s castby Ron Perlman ( Hellboy ) , in improver to Diego Boneta ( Terminator : Dark Fate ) , Meagan Good ( Shazam ! ) , and rapper T.I. judge by the one - sheets , theMonster Huntermovie will be relatively more grounded esthetically than the video game , but with one foot still securely plant in fantasy . That ’s more or less the opinion fan had already gotten fromthe located photos Jovovich posted onlineduring filming , present Artemis and her police squad tog in received military gear while also wield weapon system either go up from or influenced by the biz ( like the one she ’s take for on the poster ) . Between that and its plot involving soldiers travel through a portal vein to a sparse , distant world , Monster Hunterappears to have as much in common with Roland Emmerich ’s sci - fi movieStargateas the video secret plan it ’s base upon .
Anderson’sResident Evilmoviesweren’t exactly close to the original gameseither , so it would n’t add up as a surprisal ifMonster Hunterfollowed causa in that respect . While they were never popular with critics , Anderson and Jovovich’sResident Evilfilms emphatically had a loyal fanbase who savor their blend of stylized fiend fighting scenes and sappy - fun ( if otherwise idiotic ) mythology . One imagines theMonster Huntermovie will extradite more or less the same thing and could potentially kick off another dealership for the span in the process when it arrives at the tail - oddment of summer .
