Borderlands movie gets its first full-length trailer

1. Following a series of reshoots that took place in January of this year, the Borderlands movie will see release on August 9th, 2024. As far as we know, this will be a theater release only, so you’ll have to make the trip to your local movie theater if you want to see this one at launch.

Ahead of the movie’s launch, we’re finally getting a look at how things have come together. The very first full-length trailer has been shared, following stills, a teaser video and posters that launched yesterday. You can check out the trailer above!

Along with that trailer, IGN has posted a very special breakdown with Randy Pitchford, the guy calling the shots at Borderlands developer Gearbox. He has all kinds of insight to offer into the trailer, including a breakdown of shots, designs, and much more. If you’re looking for more details on the movie than the trailer provides, this is the video to check out.

In the Borderlands movie, Lilith (played by 2x Oscar winner Cate Blanchett), is an infamous treasure hunter with a mysterious past, reluctantly returns to her home planet of Pandora to find the missing daughter of Atlas (Edgar Ramirez), the universe’s most powerful S.O.B. She forms an unexpected alliance with a ragtag team of misfits – Roland (Kevin Hart), once a highly respected soldier, but now desperate for redemption; Tiny Tina (Ariana Greenblatt), a feral pre-teen demolitionist; Krieg (Florian Munteanu), Tina’s musclebound, rhetorically challenged protector; Tannis (Jamie Lee Curtis), the scientist who’s seen it all; and Claptrap (Jack Black), a persistently wiseass robot.
