Milla Jovovich’s “Resident Evil” character Alice may not be done chasing zombies quite yet. In a recent interview with MTV News, writer-director Paul W.S. Anderson said he certainly wouldn’t be against making a fourth film.
Anderson said the project is only in early developmental stages, and he hasn’t come up with a concrete story yet. Here’s part of what he told MTV:

I liked the first film, hated the second and pretty much enjoyed the third one, but I’m not sure another sequel is such a good idea. Then again, “Resident Evil: Extinction” left us with an open ending, suggesting Alice will next head to Umbrella’s headquarters in Japan.
What do you guys think?

For real, what does Gold Circle Films do? They seem to announce something new every few weeks, only I never see any of the projects in theaters. I believe the last one I can remember is SLiTHER, with White Noise 2 and Whisper going direct-to-dvd. Either way, the production line-up continues to grow as Milla Jovovich (resident Evil, Ultraviolet, The Fifth Element) is set to topline in Gold Circle's thriller The 4th Kind. Read on for the skinny.
