So far, the promotion for Dredd has been virtually non-existent aside from a smattering of magazine stills and interview blips here and there. In the movie business, 5 months is a relatively short period of time and it's a little disconcerting that we have yet to see a clip, trailer or even the dreaded trailer for the trailer. Still, Dredd has a modest budget of $45 million and if it's anywhere near halfway decent I would expect it to avoid posting a huge loss.
Synopsis:The story of Dredd takes place on a fictional Earth created as a result of the Atomic Wars. Survivors of this period are currently living in Mega-Cities, which protects its citizens from the Cursed Earth, a radioactive desert environment populated by mutants. The main story takes place in Mega-City One, where Judge Dredd (Karl Urban), a senior law enforcement officer, teams up with a cadet called Judge Anderson (Olivia Thirlby) to track down a terrorist organization lead by Ma-Ma (Lena Headey), who is responsible for selling a reality-altering drug called Slo-Mo.
