One of the most intriguing films of this year is Gareth Edwards’ The Creator, which has just dropped a new sketch- style poster for the September 29 science-fiction epic.
As most studios flee from San Diego Comic-Con’s hyperbole-filled Hall H, 20th Century Studios and New Regency will use the vacuum created by their absence to promote The Creator, which is the Rogue One director’s first film in seven years, and features John David Washington as an ex-special forces agent who becomes conflicted in his life-or-death mission to save humanity in the battle against A.I.
Written by Edwards and Chris Weitz, from a story by Edwards, The Creator also stars Gemma Chan (Eternals), Ken Watanabe (Inception), Sturgill Simpson (Dog), newcomer Madeleine Yuna Voyles and Academy Award winner Allison Janney (I, Tonya).
Amidst a future war between the human race and the forces of artificial intelligence, Joshua (Washington), a hardened ex-special forces agent grieving the disappearance of his wife (Chan), is recruited to hunt down and kill the Creator, the elusive architect of advanced AI who has developed a mysterious weapon with the power to end the war… and mankind itself. Joshua and his team of elite operatives journey across enemy lines, into the dark heart of AI-occupied territory… only to discover the world-ending weapon he’s been instructed to destroy is an AI in the form of a young child.
The Creator is released exclusively in cinemas on September 29th, 2023.
