No! That’s not Tom Hardy. Upgrade, the new sci-fi revenge thriller starring Tom Hardy lookalike Logan Marshall-Green, now has an extremely exciting new trailer. The new Blumhouse film from Saw architect Leigh Whannell first premiered at SXSW, where it earned favourable reviews from audiences. Judging from the massively impressive trailer alone, it’s easy to see why. The film looks action-packed and quite entertaining.
“I just had an idea about a computer that was controlling a human, puppeteering them but the human was still in there and was involuntarily having to do these things,” Whannell previously told Deadline.
Set in the near-future, technology controls nearly all aspects of life. But when Grey, a self-identified technophobe, has his world turned upside down, his only hope for revenge is an experimental computer chip implant called Stem.
Upgrade has a June 1 release date.
