Jamie Lee Curtis, who has been taking photos of the cast as part of these shadowy promos, has posted a picture with the main cast of the Borderlands Movies in one place, though their full visage remains hidden.

Below you can see Florian Munteanu’s Krieg, Ariana Greenblatt’s Tiny Tina, Curtis’ Tannis, Cate Blanchett’s Lilith, Kevin Hart’s Roland, and Claptrap (voiced by Jack Black) lined up in front of a screen. It seems this might be the best look at the cast we’ll get before a teaser or trailer, but eagle-eyed viewers can make out the outline of certain accouterments like how Lilith and Roland are packing some heat.
Original Story Below…
The Borderlands movie has shared more photos of the cast including Kevin Hart’s Roland, Jamie Lee Curtis’ Dr. Tannis, and Claptrap.
Like the shadowy photo of Cate Blanchett’s Lilith, these photos only share a silhouette of the cast in costume. But at least judging by Florian Munteanu’s spiky outline as Krieg, the Borderlands aesthetic is very noticeable even from these pictures.
Check the full gallery of today’s photos below.
The Borderlands Movie is a live-action adaptation of Gearbox’s popular looter-shooter. Directed by Eli Roth based on a screenplay co-written by him and Chernobyl creator Craig Mazin, the Borderlands movie focuses on Lilith (Blanchett) as she takes on a hostage rescue mission.
According to an official synopsis, Lilith is tasked by Atlas, a wealthy CEO, to find his missing daughter. To do so, Lilith teams up with Roland (Hart), Krieg (Munteanu), Tiny Tina (Ariana Greenblatt), Tannis (Curtis), and Claptrap (voiced by Jack Black).
Additional cast members include Janina Gavankar as the villainous Commander Knox, Gina Gershon as Mad Moxxi, and Haley Bennett in an undisclosed role.
Borderlands is just one video game currently being adapted for the screen. A long-in-development Uncharted movie starring Tom Holland has wrapped production, and Mazin will write a live-action The Last of Us TV show for HBO starring Pedro Pascal.
