First Look at Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt in The Electric State

The Electric State: Russo Brothers Bring Post-Apocalyptic Graphic Novel to Life

The 1990s were a decade of significant change, but in the world of “The Electric State,” that change was far more radical. Based on the graphic novel by Simon Stålenhag, this upcoming film from the Russo brothers (directors of “Avengers: Endgame” and “The Gray Man”) paints a post-apocalyptic vision of America where the rise of robotic artificial intelligence led to a devastating war between humans and machines.

Years after the conflict, an uneasy peace prevails, but the scars of the past remain. In this desolate landscape, a young woman (Millie Bobby Brown) embarks on a perilous cross-country journey, accompanied by a mysterious toy robot and a roguish smuggler (Chris Pratt). Together, they delve into the heart of a mechanical conspiracy that threatens to shatter the fragile peace.

The Russo brothers take Stålenhag’s graphic novel and amplify its core concept, crafting an explosive narrative filled with action, intrigue, and thought-provoking themes about the relationship between humanity and technology. “The Electric State” promises to be a visually stunning and emotionally resonant exploration of a world grappling with the consequences of unchecked technological advancement.

A Deeper Dive into the Story and Cast

“The Electric State” follows Michelle (Brown), a young woman who, along with her enigmatic robot companion, teams up with an eccentric drifter (Pratt) to find her missing younger brother. Their journey takes them through a retro-futuristic American landscape, where the remnants of technology clash with the desolate beauty of a world recovering from war.

The Russo brothers have described the story as a “fairy tale” with “elemental aspects,” drawing viewers into a world that blends fantastical elements with grounded human emotions. Their passion for science fiction and fantasy shines through in their choice to adapt this graphic novel, which they believe offers both captivating entertainment and profound thematic depth.

The film boasts an impressive ensemble cast, including Millie Bobby Brown, Chris Pratt, Ke Huy Quan, Stanley Tucci, Jason Alexander, Giancarlo Esposito, and Woody Norman. The voice cast for the robotic characters is equally impressive, featuring Woody Harrelson, Anthony Mackie, Brian Cox, and Jenny Slate.

The Russos, known for their ensemble-driven storytelling, emphasize the importance of each character in their films, regardless of the size of their role. This approach promises a rich and nuanced tapestry of characters in “The Electric State,” each contributing to the film’s overall impact.

The project also reunites the Russo brothers with familiar faces from their previous films, including Chris Pratt and Anthony Mackie from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The screenplay is penned by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, who also collaborated with the Russos on their Captain America and Avengers films.

With its compelling story, stellar cast, and the creative vision of the Russo brothers, “The Electric State” is poised to be a captivating cinematic experience.
