'Resident Evil' star Milla Jovovich and her husband, 'RE' director Paul W.S. Anderson, are expecting their second child, the actress announced on her Facebook yesterday (Aug. 18).

While this is undoubtedly exciting news for the happy couple (who have worked on the entire franchise together and have been married since 2009), it might be somewhat of a disappointment to fans, since Jovovich and Anderson will now have to postpone filming the final installment of 'Resident Evil.'

Taking to Facebook, Jovovich wrote:

This was originally going to be a post to tell you how excited I am about flying to Cape Town, South Africa to begin working on Resident Evil: The Final Chapter.

But… My husband Paul and I just discovered that we are expecting another baby!!!

So after a lot of discussion, we thought it would be in everyone’s best interest to wait till the baby is born before we set out to try and tackle an RE movie. Between the stunt work and what will become my ever-expanding belly, we didn’t think pregnancy and zombie killing are the best combo! Lol! I imagine the only thing I’ll be killing in the near future is an endless supply of cupcakes. Yikes…

In all seriousness though, we want to make the best movie possible and that would be extremely difficult, to say the least, in my present condition.

While we know that fans of the series might be bummed for right now, they can't really argue with the star and the director of the films -- especially since they have a pretty good reason for postponing the movie.

Congratulations to the happy couple, who are also parents to daughter Ever.
