Que pasa Hugh, que pasa?
Fully aware it is Portuguese, not Spanish, that is spoken in Brazil, I now direct you to a new Brazilian one-sheet for Shawn Levy’s REAL STEEL. In it, Hugh Jackman looks like he longs for the days of pining over Meg Ryan in KATE AND LEOPOLD. A sad, sad day!
Trouncing into theaters October 7th, 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.
Evangeline Lilly (below), Anthony Mackie, Kevin Durand, Dakota Goyo, Hope Davis, Phil LaMarr, Olga Fonda and Karl Yune also appear in the movie.
