Alita Battle Angel based on the manga of the same name is finally coming to the big screen after years uncertainty. The release date has been pushed to February 14 so it will make a perfect, romantic Valentine’s Day. Fans worldwide have been waiting for this film so an extra month or so shouldn’t make too much of a difference. Personally I have high hopes for this movie and with Robert Rodriguez and James Cameron behind this adaptation Alita should be enjoyable. Based on the trailers the film will be visually amazing.
20th Century Fox has released a new trailer for ALITA: BATTLE ANGEL! From visionary filmmakers James Cameron and Robert Rodriguez, the film stars Rosa Salazar, Christoph Waltz, Jennifer Connelly, Mahershala Ali, Ed Skrein, Jackie Earle Haley and Keean Johnson.
SYNOPSIS
From visionary filmmakers James Cameron (AVATAR) and Robert Rodriguez (SIN CITY), comes ALITA: BATTLE ANGEL, an epic adventure of hope and empowerment. When Alita (Rosa Salazar) awakens with no memory of who she is in a future world she does not recognize, she is taken in by Ido (Christoph Waltz), a compassionate doctor who realizes that somewhere in this abandoned cyborg shell is the heart and soul of a young woman with an extraordinary past. As Alita learns to navigate her new life and the treacherous streets of Iron City, Ido tries to shield her from her mysterious history while her street-smart new friend Hugo (Keean Johnson) offers instead to help trigger her memories. But it is only when the deadly and corrupt forces that run the city come after Alita that she discovers a clue to her past – she has unique fighting abilities that those in power will stop at nothing to control. If she can stay out of their grasp, she could be the key to saving her friends, her family and the world she’s grown to love.
