For those of you excited for the DVD/Blu-ray release of REAL STEEL, I have a cool little scoop for you.
The early artwork for the upcoming release on January 24th has been unveiled. It pretty much looks as you’d expect, nothing spectacular but it will be coming in the cool combo pack. No other details have been released, so we don’t know what extra features it will have. I am sure it’ll be jam packed, with interesting features and documentaries on the making of.
A gritty, white-knuckle, action ride set in the near-future where the sport of boxing has gone high-tech, “Real Steel” stars Hugh Jackman as Charlie Kenton, a washed-up fighter who lost his chance at a title when 2000-pound, 8-foot-tall steel robots took over the ring. Now nothing but a small-time promoter, Charlie earns just enough money piecing together low-end bots from scrap metal to get from one underground boxing venue to the next. When Charlie hits rock bottom, he reluctantly teams up with his estranged son Max (Dakota Goyo) to build and train a championship contender. As the stakes in the brutal, no-holds-barred arena are raised, Charlie and Max, against all odds, get one last shot at a comeback.
The film stars Hugh Jackman, Evangeline Lilly, Anthony Mackie, Kevin Durand, Dakota Goyo, Hope Davis, Phil LaMarr, Olga Fonda and Karl Yune.
