People have posted the first pictures of the cast of the Borderlands movie and they’re looking rather good. The first image shows Cate Blanchett, Jamie Lee Curtis, Kevin Hart, Ariana Greenblatt, and Florian Munteanu along with Claptrap, who is voiced by Kevin Hart.

A second image shows Kate Blanchett as Lilith but it does seem a bit… odd? Almost low res, or it has some sort of filter on it, take a look.

The film has been in development for a good few years and was announced way a back in 2015. Eli Roth was in the director’s chair for the Borderlands movie, his filmography includes the likes of Cabin Fever, the Hostel films, The Green Inferno, Death Wish, and The House with a Clock in its Walls.
The film was completed some time ago but Tim Mller was brought on board to reshoot some scenes.
“It was an interesting experience to come in and do reshoots on a movie that’s not yours”, he told Collider. “It’s a freeing experience where you feel like, “I’m just here to help wherever I can.” But my main reason, other than, you know, I have a huge affection for the video game industry, I want to see every video game adaption succeed is, I’ll be honest, I wanted to work with Cate Blanchett, and I wanted to work with Kevin and Jamie Lee Curtis. And Ariana Greenblatt, the young lady who plays Tiny Tina, is amazing, which everybody knows from the Barbie movie. So it was a great experience all around. I was feeling a little rusty, so I was happy to get back in the saddle. The movie gets up and moves. It’s a good ride.”
The cast will include Jamie Lee Curtis as Tannis, Cate Blanchett as Lilith, Ariana Greenblatt as Tiny Tina, Jack Black as Claptrap, Kevin Hart as Roland, Edgar Ramirez as Deukalian Atlas, the Founder and CEO of the Atlas Corporation, and Florian Munteanu as Krieg. Haley Bennett was also added to cast but she will not be playing an established character.
A plot summary was also released in 2020.
