Netflix may have bet a few square acres of the farm on The Electric State, but they may not have bet the whole thing. Although they aren’t promoting this movie as aggressively as they did Rebel Moon, they are still marketing it far more than they typically do for any Netflix release, even ones that have well-known stars and filmmakers.
Watch the trailer below:
The streaming service has unveiled the final trailer for the movie just under two weeks before its premiere on the streaming service. While the latest action epic from the Russo brothers doesn’t resemble the eerily gloomy tone Simon Stålenhag outlined in his 2018 graphic novel, it has addressed those worries in its most recent trailer. However, since the response is a liberal application of Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch, you may be already on board.
The second and last trailer for Joe and Anthony Russo’s adaptation of Stålenhag’s science fiction universe was released by Netflix yesterday. The movie loosely follows the same plot as the original. It follows a young girl (Millie Bobby Brown from Stranger Things) searching for her missing brother around the dystopian United States of the 1990s. After being forced to join forces with a renegade smuggler named Keats (played by Chris Pratt of Guardians of the Galaxy), the film deviates significantly from the original work. The two and their robot allies rebelled against the corrupt ruling class and demanded rights for the sentient machines.
Brown, Pratt, Academy Award winner Ke Huy Quan, Jason Alexander, Giancarlo Esposito, Academy Award nominee Stanley Tucci, and Woody Norman are all featured in Anthony and Joe Russo’s film. Anthony Mackie, Woody Harrelson, Brian Cox, Jenny Slate, and Alan Tudyk provide the robot voices. Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely wrote the movie’s screenplay based on Simon Stålenhag’s graphic novel. On March 14, 2025, Netflix will begin streaming it.
