Trailer and poster for James Franco’s post-apocalyptic thriller Future World

April 9, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its release next month, Lionsgate has debuted a new poster and trailer for directors James Franco and Bruce Thierry Cheung’s post-apocalyptic thriller Future World. The film stars Franco alongside Suki Waterhouse, Jeffrey Wahlberg, Margarita Levieva, Snoop Dogg, George Lewis Jr., Cliff “Method Man” Smith, Lucy Liu, and Milla Jovovich. Take a look at the poster, trailer and official synopsis here…

Inside a desert oasis, a queen (Lucy Liu) lays dying as her son Prince (Jeffrey Wahlberg) travels across barren waste lands to find a near-mythical medicine to save her life. After evading violent raiders on motorbikes led by the Warlord (James Franco) and his enforcer (Cliff “Method Man” Smith), Prince meets Ash (Suki Waterhouse), the Warlord’s robot sex companion-assassin who’s in search of her own soul. As Prince is captured by the Druglord (Milla Jovovich), the Warlord’s forces roar in – and Prince fights to save the remnants of humanity.
