Monster Hunter Movie Will Have 'Bloody Big Monsters,' Says Resident Evil Director Paul W.S. Anderson

While speaking with Anderson about his upcoming YouTube original sci-fi horror series, Origin, the director shed some light on the Monster Hunter film and what we can expect to see when it hits theaters. "There are some bloody big monsters in it, I can tell you that, Anderson said, adding, "we have some very very big monsters."

Anderson was not at liberty to share all of the details surrounding the ambitious production, but he did inform us that there will be additional casting news coming soon. "We're about to make a big series of announcements about the rest of the cast," Anderson explained. "Milla [Jovovich] is definitely in it. We have a really exciting big cast that's going to join her. I can't say anything [more] about it right now."

Remind me again, is the plot of the movie about some guy in New York who gets transported to a new world to be the fabled Monster Hunter to guard Earth from a portal that connects his world to the Monster Dimension.

And then at some point Rathalos fucks up New York City?

I think if there's a franchise that's going to get a big dumb movie that ignores everything about it, it should probably be this one. Not exactly a story heavy series or one that really lends itself to a straight movie adaptation.

Won't see it because Anderson hasn't made a good movie in years and there's already enough Jovovich fighting ugly CGI creatures movies to choose from if I want to go down that route.

I can see no scenario where this ends up being great. I have a feeling these monsters are mostly going to be dealt with modern weaponry.

can easily see this becoming one of the worst video game adaptations, even if competition is hard in that category

You better HOPE this makes a bank, because if it doesn't, Paul Anderson and Capcom will likely do Devil May Cry next.

Can't wait for Milla Jovovich to kick a monster in the face.

Paul WS Anderson is Uwe Boll with a better agent.

Honestly, if there is something that actually fits his sensibilities in Capcom's properties, it's probably that anyway. This is a guy that had someone using a motorcyle to uppercut a monster into the sky. He's already halfway there.

First was Resident Evil
Now its Monster Hunter

I have nothing against video game movie adaptations, but at least stick with the source material...

How the fuck do these scripts get approved?

Like, who is this for? Because MH fans won't be happy with the bullshit modern real world stuff that will likely involve GUNS, and it just comes off as cheesy to everyone else.

Not really, Afterlife actually stole the Wesker fight scene in RE5.
RE6 is the only game that felt like a loose adaptation of Paul Anderson's movies.


The entire "kicking zombie dogs in the face" aesthetic of his movies translated into the suplexing, laser-dodging Leon that defined RE4.

I'll give you that one, but yeah, those are about it. RE5 and RE4 really don't go out of their way to copycat the movies to the point where they'd be considered the source material.

It's actually UN soldiers.

A United Nations military team falls into a portal to an alternate dimension, where humans fight off giant monsters. The two groups work together to defend the portal to prevent monsters from entering the portal and invading Earth.

I now want Capcom to make a shooter based on this movie where you fight all the monsters from the MH world
