Is Borderlands the Movie a False Good Idea?
While fans were treated to the successful Super Mario Bros. movie this year, there is another video game adaptation project in the works that is generating buzz. Borderlands the Movie was announced a few years ago, and now it has finally been given a release date.
However, the announcement has not received a positive response from fans. There are several reasons that support their concerns. Firstly, the development of the movie has been chaotic so far. Originally scheduled for release in 2021, the film didn’t meet the expectations of the production team, leading to a redesign and reshoots under the direction of filmmaker Tim Miller.
Furthermore, numerous writers have been involved in the script throughout the production process. Craig Mazin, co-creator of the TV series The Last of Us, was initially part of the project but later decided to remove his name from the credits. These factors do not bode well for the movie.
Release Date for Borderlands the Movie
Despite all the challenges, Borderlands the Movie is indeed coming to theaters. The official Twitter account for the film recently announced that it will be released on August 9, 2024.
