Rumour has it that the first trailer for
Bloodshot will arrive this month, but with zero marketing thus far, it's hard to escape the feeling that the movie's February release date will be pushed back. Regardless, a first look at Vin Diesel as the titular character has now been revealed, and this could prove to be pretty divisive.
As you can see, it appears as if the logo frequently shown on the character's chest will now just be a t-shirt he wears, while it's hard to say how good or bad Diesel will look painted blue!
Here's the synopsis for
Bloodshot:
After he and his wife are murdered, Marine Ray Garrison (Vin Diesel) is resurrected by a secret team of scientists. Enhanced with nanotechnology, he becomes a superhuman, biotech killing machine – Bloodshot. As Ray first trains with fellow super-soldiers, he cannot recall anything from his former life. But when his memories flood back and he remembers the man that killed both him and his wife, he breaks out of the facility hellbent on revenge, only to discover that there’s more to the conspiracy than he originally thought
Dave Wilson, a frequent collaborator of
Deadpool director Tim Miller, is helming
Bloodshot. The script was written by
Arrival's Eric Heisserer, while
Kick-Ass 2's Jeff Wadlow also contributed.
