With the filming already underway for Eli Roth’s film adaptation of 2K’s Borderlands, fans have been clamoring for a first look at how the characters will look in the movie. Thanks to Jamie Lee Curtis’ tweet, we get to have a first look (sort of) at Cate Blanchett as Lilith.
The movie’s cast includes Jamie Lee Curtis as Dr. Patricia Tannis, Jack Black as Claptrap, Cate Blanchett as Lilith, Gina Gershon as Moxxi, Kevin Hart as Roland, and Ariana Greenblatt as Tiny Tina.
Also revealed is the official logo for the movie which kept true to the art style and look as the game.
Here’s the official synopsis for Lionsgate’s Borderlands movie, with Lilith as the lead character:
In the movie Lilith (Blanchett), an infamous outlaw with a mysterious past, reluctantly returns to her home planet of Pandora to find the missing daughter of the universe’s most powerful S.O.B., Atlas (Ramirez). Lilith forms an alliance with an unexpected team – Roland (Hart), a former elite mercenary, now desperate for redemption; Tiny Tina (Greenblatt), a feral pre-teen demolitionist; Krieg (Munteanu), Tina’s musclebound, rhetorically challenged protector; Tannis (Curtis), the scientist with a tenuous grip on sanity; and Claptrap (Black), a persistently wiseass robot. These unlikely heroes must battle alien monsters and dangerous bandits to find and protect the missing girl, who may hold the key to unimaginable power. The fate of the universe could be in their hands – but they’ll be fighting for something more: each other.
