It currently stands at $247. 6 million worldwide. https://www. youtube. com/watch? v=mNd1gb19A-c What's propelling Resident Evil higher was its release in China this week--it debuted there on October 5, and it's expected to make $35 million in China for its first week. If this comes to fruition, Resident Evil should pass $280 million globally this week. The previous Resident Evil movies from director Paul W. S. Anderson also performed phenomenally in China. The last one, 2016's The Final Chapter, made $159. 5 million in China alone, making up more than 51% of the movie's worldwide gross of $312. 2
