Well, this is awkward. Despite my best efforts to persuade her otherwise, Cate Blanchett has officially signed up to take part in the upcoming Borderlands movie, where sheâll be playing Lilith.
The news wasnât announced by Blanchett or her people, but by director Eli Roth, who toldEW âIâm so lucky to have the amazing Cate Blanchett starring in Borderlands.â
No shit.
My ambivalence for this entire project has been made clear alreadyâthis is âan asshole directing a movie based on a series whose last outing was written for 11 year-old Rick & Morty fansââand I think Blanchett is better than this.
But whatever, maybe this is why I write about video games for eight hours a day and donât work as an agent in Hollywood
