Netflix's 'The Electric State' to Release in 2025

Netflix's film adaptation of Simon Stålenhag's graphic novel 'The Electric State,' directed by the Russo Brothers, features a star-studded cast including Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt as they navigate a retro-futuristic post-apocalyptic America populated by sentient robots. The film diverges from the darker tone of the novel, opting for a family-friendly approach to convey its technology-themed messages to a broader audience, especially younger viewers. Notable voice talents in the film include Anthony Mackie, Brian Cox, and Alan Tudyk. Additionally, a prequel video game, 'The Electric State: Kid Cosmo,' will expand the narrative universe, offering an immersive puzzle adventure set before the film's events. The game, developed by the Russos' media company AGBO, is part of Netflix's expansion into interactive digital experiences. The film and game are set to release in March 2025, engaging audiences with their rich backstory and visual storytelling.
