As for Resident Evil, more Leon and Claire is usually a winning formula for Capcom. Even more appealing is that it looks like an original adventure, rather than just telling one of the games. Netflix has announced a brand new summary of the movie:
In 2006, there were traces of improper access to secret presidential files in the White House network. U.S. Federal Agent Leon S. Kennedy is among the group invited to the White House to investigate this incident, but when the lights suddenly go out, Leon and the SWAT team are forced to take down a horde of mysterious zombies. Meanwhile, TerraSave staff member Claire Redfield gets a mysterious image drawn by a youth in a country she visited while providing refugee support. Ghosted by this drawing, which is apparently a victim of viral infection, Claire begins her own investigation.
The next morning, Claire visits the White House to request the construction of a welfare facility. There she has a casual reunion with Leon and uses the opportunity to show him the boy’s drawing. Leon seems to realize some sort of connection between the zombie outbreak in the White House and the strange drawing, but he tells Claire that there is no connection and departure. Over time, these two zombie outbreaks in distant lands lead to events that shake the nation to its core.
