The new trailer for the upcoming movie Future World has dropped – and its fantastic. Not to say it looks good, it’s just something that looks great. Directed by James Franco and Bruce Thierry Cheung, the movie looks like a straight-up Mad Max rip-off. The movie has a chance to be fun, but that depends on how the actors treat the material.
It’s hard for me to believe this is a real movie, but it’s happening. I suppose without further adieu – here’s the trailer:
[su_youtube url=”https://youtu.be/uljtvXrkdbc”]This certainly looks like a strange movie. Sex-robots and the apocalypse. That’s a choice. We’ll see how the movie is received when its released May 25th on VOD and in select cities.
Here’s the official synopsis for Future World:
Inside a desert oasis, a queen (Lucy Liu) lays dying as her son Prince (Jeffrey Wahlberg) travels across barren waste lands to find a near-mythical medicine to save her life. After evading violent raiders on motorbikes led by the Warlord (James Franco) and his enforcer (Cliff “Method Man” Smith), Prince meets Ash (Suki Waterhouse), the Warlord’s robot sex companion-assassin who’s in search of her own soul. As Prince is captured by the Druglord (Milla Jovovich), the Warlord’s forces roar in – and Prince fights to save the remnants of humanity.
Future World will be released in select theaters and on iTunes and Amazon on May 25th.
