Robert Rodriguez's live-action Battle Angel: Alita film is scheduled to begin filming later this month in Texas for a July 20, 2018 release date.  The full cast includes Rosa Salazar as Alita, Christoph Waltz as Dr. Dyson Ido, Keean Johnson as Hugo, Ed Skrein as Zapan, Mahershala Ali as Vector and Jackie Earle Haley and Eiza González in undisclosed roles.

The latest addition is Jorge Lendeborg Jr., who most recently joined the ensemble cast of Marvel Studios' Spider-Man: Homecoming as an undisclosed character described as, "the cunning and sly friend of Johnson's character, Hugo."


PLOT DESCRIPTION (per THR)
Set in the 26th century, Alita tells of a female cyborg (Salazar) that is discovered in a scrapyard by a scientist. With no memory of her previous life except her deadly martial-arts training, the woman becomes a bounty hunter, tracking down criminals. The action-adventure story is meant to serve as a backdrop to themes of self-discovery and the search for love.
