Borderlands movie start of "Cinematic Universe", Randy Pitchford says


The upcoming Cate Blanchett-fronted Borderlands film is the start of a "Borderlands Cinematic Universe".

This character is played by actor Édgar Ramírez, whose previous film credits include Zero Dark Thirty, The Bourne Ultimatum and Jungle Cruise. According to Pitchford, when he was on set with Ramírez, he told the actor to "imagine that you've got a dick made out of three machine guns when you're in this scene", so there is something for you to think about this Friday morning. Along with Ramírez and Blanchett's Lilith, the film also stars Kevin Hart as soldier Roland, Ariana Greenblatt as pre-teen demolitionist Tiny Tina, Florian Munteanu as Tina's bodyguard Krieg, Jamie Lee Curtis as scientist Tannis and Jack Black as (the voice of) robot Claptrap.
