A huge thank you to our friends at
20th Century Fox and
Weta Digital for allowing us to spend the afternoon with
Alita: Battle Angel's Director Robert Rodriguez and the special effects crew! We got the opportunity to suit up in a performance capture suit and act out one of the scenes for the film.
Check out the exclusive video below, followed by more details about the anime adaptation.
The whole experience of dressing up in a motion capture suit and going on the floor was truly amazing. At first I was super nervous being around such awesome people, but it was a ton of fun once I got comfortable with the guys! Words cannot describe the experiences that I had that day. There were a lot of laughs and fun and I truly felt like I was living out one of my childhood dreams. I learned a lot about what goes into blockbuster film and it absolutely took my breath away!

About Alita: Battle Angel: From visionary filmmakers James Cameron and Robert Rodriguez, comes Alita: Battle Angel, an epic adventure of hope and empowerment. When Alita awakens with no memory of who she is in a future world she does not recognize, she is taken in by Ido, a compassionate doctor who realizes that somewhere in this abandoned cyborg shell is the heart and soul of a young woman with an extraordinary past. As Alita learns to navigate her new life and the treacherous streets of Iron City, Ido tries to shield her from her mysterious history while her street-smart new friend Hugo offers instead to help trigger her memories. But it is only when the deadly and corrupt forces that run the city come after Alita that she discovers a clue to her past – she has unique fighting abilities that those in power will stop at nothing to control. If she can stay out of their grasp, she could be the key to saving her friends, her family and the world she’s grown to love.
