The film adaptation of the popular video game “Borderlands” has unveiled an exclusive look, giving fans a glimpse of what to expect from this long-awaited release.
The movie, which began filming in Budapest in 2021 at Origo Studios, is set to hit theaters on August 8. The newly released clip offers a taste of the film’s distinctive humor, intense action, and extravagant style.
The brief but exciting preview features Claptrap, the beloved and often comical robot from the game, who finds himself in a frantic situation. Voiced by Jack Black, Claptrap‘s antics bring a dose of humor as he inadvertently attracts enemies while his companions try to complete a mission. The clip also showcases Cate Blanchett, who portrays the character Lilith with impressive weapon-wielding skills, demonstrating her seamless transition into the action-packed world of Borderlands.
Lilith, a notorious outlaw, returns to her home planet Pandora with a mission to find Atlas‘s powerful daughter. To accomplish this, she assembles a team of eccentric characters, including Claptrap. The cast features Kevin Hart as Roland, Ariana Greenblatt as Tiny Tina, Florian Munteanu as Krieg, and Jamie Lee Curtis as the scientist Patricia Tannis.
Directed by Eli Roth, known for his work on “Hostel” and “Death Wish,” the film promises to stay true to the spirit of the game, blending humor, action, and a unique visual style. Roth also penned the script, though due to scheduling conflicts during reshoots, Tim Miller, famous for “Deadpool” and “Terminator: Dark Fate,” stepped in to assist with additional scenes.
Fans of the video game can look forward to seeing their favorite characters and the chaotic, vibrant world of Pandora brought to life on the big screen. With its star-studded cast and the creative direction of Roth and Miller, the Borderlands movie aims to deliver an unforgettable cinematic experience.
