Welcome to IGN Fan Fest 2024, where we have an exclusive trailer breakdown for the highly anticipated Borderlands movie. Join me, Randy Pitchford, the founder and CEO of Gearbox Entertainment, as we take a deep dive into the details of this exciting new film. Let's pause, rewind, and uncover every detail of this cinematic adventure.
In this trailer, you'll notice elements from the game that have been meticulously brought to life on the big screen. The Atlas Corporation, a prominent entity in the Borderlands Universe, takes center stage, introducing us to Dialon Atlas, the CEO, played by a totally unique character.
The trailer offers us our first glimpse inside a vault, and the scale of this monumental location is truly breathtaking. Collaborating with the film's production team and concept artists, we aimed to capture the essence of what it feels like to be inside a vault, while paying homage to the game's lore.
"We borrowed some things from different permutations of those explorations, with a nod to the very first Vault."
Kate Blanchett's portrayal of Lilith, a powerful character in the Borderlands universe, reflects the character's value and capability. Her design, recognizable to cosplayers, seamlessly captures the essence of Lilith from the games.
The practical creation of Marcus's bus, not CGI, stands as a testament to the dedication to authenticity in bringing the world of Borderlands to life. The bus includes an authentic Borderlands vending machine, a brilliant addition to the movie.
The trailer doesn't disappoint with surprise appearances from Kevin Hart, showcasing his action talents, and the incredible Ariana Greenblat in her role as Tiny Tina. Her portrayal brings the character to life with talent and authenticity, making it a delightful experience for fans.
As the trailer unfolds, we witness the brilliance of the entire cast, including Jamie Lee, Jack Black, and several recognizable characters from the game's universe.
The attention to detail in practical effects, vehicle designs, and the creation of vivid world locations like Firestone and Moxxi's bar stands as a testament to the commitment to bringing the world of Borderlands to life.
"We made a real one and it worked, but it eventually collapsed, much to our surprise."
Action sequences, explosions, and acrobatic gunplay are intricately woven into the film, delivering a delightful blend of seriousness and comedy, capturing the essence of the Borderlands universe.
As the breakdown draws to a close, we're left with a promise of an entertaining, comedic adventure. The film's release date of August 9th, 2024, marks the beginning of a thrilling cinematic journey into the world of Borderlands. Cheers to the excitement that awaits!
