Based on the Japanese manga series “Gunnm” by Yukito Kishiro, the Robert Rodriguez-directed, James Cameron-produced/co-written Alita: Battle Angel hopes to kick-start a brand new film franchise early next year, and we’ve got a new poster for ya today. Find it below.
Set in the 26th century…
“Alita tells of a female cyborg that is discovered in a scrapyard by a scientist. With no memory of her previous life except her deadly martial-arts training, the woman becomes a bounty hunter, tracking down criminals. The action-adventure story is meant to serve as a backdrop to themes of self-discovery and the search for love.”
The cast includes Rosa Salazar, Christoph Waltz, Jennifer Connelly, Mahershala Ali, Ed Skrein, Jackie Earle Haley and Keean Johnson.
Cameron, Laeta Kalogridis and Robert Rodriguez wrote the script.
Alita arrives on February 14, 2019.
