After the rather boring September, October is slowly bringing back big blockbusters into cinemas, and one of them will certainly be
Hugh Jackman's
REAL STEEL spectacular new sf adventure set in the world of futuristic robot boxing and fighting. The film opens in cinemas October 7th.
REAL STEEL STORY
A gritty, white-knuckle, action ride set in the near-future, where the sport of boxing has gone hi-tech,
REAL STEEL stars
Hugh Jackman as Charlie Kenton, a washed-up fighter who lost his chance at a title when 2000-pound, 8-foot-tall
steel robots took over the ring. Now nothing but a small-time promoter, Charlie earns just enough money piecing together low-end bots from scrap metal to get from one underground boxing venue to the next. When Charlie hits rock bottom, he reluctantly teams up with his estranged son Max (
Dakota Goyo)to build and train a championship contender. As the stakes in the brutal, no-holds-barred arena are raised, Charlie and Max, against all odds, get one last shot at a comeback. Together they will try to make a champion out of a discarded robot.
REAL STEEL CAST
This is sort of a comeback for super charming and ultra talented
Hugh Jackman, who didn't really have any films ever since AUSTRALIA in 2008, although he did have smaller roles this summer in BUTTER and in SNOWFLOWER AND THE SECRET FAN. As you know, ahead of him he has roles in WOLVERINE,
LES MISERABLES and in
THE GREATEST SHOWMAN ON EARTH. Other
REAL STEEL cast members include gorgeous
Evangeline Lilly (from LOST, who is also playing an Elven girl in
THE HOBBIT), action star
Kevin Durand (LOST, I AM NUMBER FOUR, LEGION), and rising African
American hunk
Anthony Mackie (THE HURT LOCKER, THE ADJUSTMENT BUREAU).
