Filmmaker Eli Roth has confirmed that filming on his live action adaptation of Gear Box’s “Borderlands” has wrapped! In a post to his Instagram page, Roth revealed the first look at yellow robot (who will be voiced by Jack Back) Claptrap, as well as a new silhouette of the main cast.
The film stars Cate Blanchett as Lilith, Jack Black as Claptrap, Jamie Lee Curtis as Dr. Tannis, Kevin Hart as “Borderlands 2” character Roland (described as a skilled ex-soldier turned mercenary), Florian “Big Nasty” Munteanu as Krieg, and Ariana Greenblatt as Tiny Tina.
“Chernobyl” scribe Craig Mazin wrote the most recent “Borderlands” script for the Lionsgate release.
We do know that Gearbox Software President Randy Pitchford recently confirmed that Roth’s film would NOT be “identical” to the existing in-game universe, which was interesting.
We’ll let you know what else we hear about this and other movie news.
