Screen Gems (via IGN) has shared a first official look at the upcoming Monster Hunter live-action movie, which is an adaptation of the popular Capcom video game series.

The image features Resident Evil star Milla Jovovich as heroine Natalie Artemis, who is an original character created for the movie, alongside Thai martial arts legend Tony Jaa as The Hunter of the title.

The pair are running across South Africa's Atlantis Dunes, which will double for a location from the game known as the Wildspire Waste.



We also have a synopsis:


"Behind our world, there is another: a world of dangerous and powerful monsters that rule their domain with deadly ferocity. When Lt. Artemis (Milla Jovovich) and her loyal soldiers are transported from our world to the new world, the unflappable lieutenant receives the shock of her life. In her desperate battle for survival against enormous enemies with incredible powers and unstoppable, revolting attacks, Artemis will team up with a mysterious man who has found a way to fight back."

Monster Hunter also stars Meagan Good, T.I., Diego Boneta, and Ron Perlman. There is no official release date yet.

@ThorArms - Anything Paul W.S Anderson touches is an abomination. I feel bad for Milla because she is loyal to her husbands work but his awful films ruin her potential for bigger franchises.

I feel like she could have made a better Cheetah than Kristen Wig for example.

@ThorArms - might as well name millas character alice since its gonna be the same situation. Her character will be given more importance then the actual characters from the game because its milla.

@Origame - duh, when it's your husband you can make your character as important as you want!

@ThorArms - why's that an excuse?

@Origame - To be fair Monster Hunter games don't really have recurring characters except for some NPC's in town.

But still. This movie was ruined the second Paul Anderso. Was attached. Just making the the Milla a U.S. Marine that gets transported to the Monster Hunter's world is already jumping the shark.

@CorndogBurglar - lets face it, this is gonna be a monster hunter movie in name only. Heck, his resident evil movies have been less and less about zombies.

@Origame - Yeah. It's kind of missing the entire point of franchise.

@Origame - oh it's not... I'm being sarcastic because that's basically what actually happens. Can't stand it

It's like Tim burton and Helena Bonham..

@ThorArms - at least there it isnt messing with the source material just for the sake of giving the wifes character undue importance. Like the red queen for example. She was basically the villain in the story there so she is here too. He didnt create a new character just for the sake of making her more important than the characters the fans actually care about.

Looks like a late night b movie from the late 80s early 90s.

@BootyPeep - And people say Michael Bay and Uwe Boll are the worst filmmakers of all time. At least they aren't both terrible AND boring at the same time.
