Cate Blanchett is set to take on the role of the infamous outlaw Lilith in the upcoming film Borderlands. In this movie adaptation of Gearbox Software’s popular video game series, Blanchett's character embarks on a mission to save the universe by searching for the missing daughter of Atlas, played by Edgar Ramírez.
Blanchett's Lilith is joined by a diverse group of outcasts, including Kevin Hart as former soldier Roland, Ariana Greenblatt as pre-teen demolitionist Tiny Tina, Florian Munteanu as Tina’s bodyguard Krieg, Jamie Lee Curtis as scientist Tannis, and Jack Black as the robot Claptrap. Together, they form a team that must battle alien monsters and bandits as they navigate the treacherous planet Pandora.
The film, directed by Eli Roth and distributed by Lionsgate, began filming in Hungary in April 2021 and wrapped up in June of the same year. The cast and crew have been hard at work bringing this action-packed adventure to life, with Blanchett's portrayal of Lilith drawing particular attention for her striking red hairstyle and combat-ready appearance.
As the release date of Borderlands approaches, fans can look forward to witnessing the on-screen chemistry of this eclectic group of characters as they face challenges and dangers in their quest to save the universe. The fate of not just the universe, but also their bond as a team, hangs in the balance as they fight for something more than just survival.
Borderlands is scheduled to hit theaters on August 9, promising audiences a thrilling and visually stunning cinematic experience that brings the beloved video game series to life in a whole new way.
