First Look at The Russo Brothers' Sci-Fi Action Flick THE ELECTRIC STATE Featuring Chris Pratt, Millie Bobby Brown and Ke Huy Quan
Netflix has released a few first-look photos for us to enjoy from the upcoming film,\ The Electric State, reuniting Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame filmmakers Joe and Anthony Russo, aka The Russo Brothers, and writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. The photos include the film’s stars Millie Bobby Brown (Stranger Things), Chris Pratt (Guardians of the Galaxy), and Ke Huy Quan (Everything Everywhere All At Once).
Based on the graphic novel of the same name by Simon Stålenhag, the story takes place in a reimagined version of 1997.
With humans isolated in their VR helmets and a continuing battle against a strange breed of monstruous drones in the wake of a technological meltdown, an orphaned teenager named Michelle (Brown) traverses the American West with a sweet but mysterious robot, and an eccentric drifter in search of her younger brother.
Quan plays Dr. Amherst, a key figure in helping Michelle locate her brother, with Pratt playing Keats, a war veteran-turned-long-haul-trucker.
The cast also includes Stanley Tucci as tech guru Ethan Skate; Woody Norman as Michelle's brother, Martin Klebba; and Giancarlo Esposito as robot bounty hunter Colonel Bradbury; with Jason Alexander, Brian Cox, Jenny Slate, Anthony Mackie, Billy Bob Thornton, Alan Tudyk, and Woody Harrelson lending their voices to various robots. Harrelson provides the voice for a giant robot version of the beloved American mascot Mr. Peanut.
Check out the new photos, and get ready for The Electric State to hit Netflix in March 2025.
