The Big Picture At long last, the chaotic universe of the Borderlands video game franchise is coming to the big screen. Eli Roth's long-awaited adaptation, starring Cate Blanchett and Kevin Hart as original vault hunters Lilith and Roland, is set to release in theaters this August and end a nearly decade-long saga to bring Gearbox's characters to life.
"Yeah, it's so funny. It's a good movie. It's a very whimsical, very gonzo. That movie is kind of like a hangover. It's like the haze after a hangover because that's kind of the spirit of the game. Eli Roth was very clear in creating this almost Italian ‘70s, science fiction feel to the film, so I'm very excited about it."
'Borderlands' Brings Together an Eccentric Team of Vault Hunters Close Lilith will get much of the spotlight in Borderlands as she returns to her home planet and explores her mysterious past in the middle of her mission. She and Roland, an ex-Crimson Lance member and another vault hunter who originates from the 2009 game that started it all, are joined by a wide range of fan favorites pulled directly from the source material.
Borderlands hits theaters on August 9. Check out our full guide here for everything we know so far about the long-gestating video game adaptation. Additionally, keep an eye out for more on Emilia Pérez, which arrives in theaters afterward on August 28 and features Ramírez alongside Zoë Saldaña, Karla Sofia Gasćon, and Selena Gomez.
