Netflix has unveiled a first look at the new Russo brothers movie starring Millie Bobby Brown, Chris Pratt, and Ke Huy Quan.
The Electric State stars Brown as an orphaned teenager named Michelle who traverses the American West with a sweet but mysterious robot, and an eccentric drifter in search of her younger brother. Quan plays Dr. Amherst, a key figure in helping Michelle locate her brother, with Pratt as Keats, a war veteran-turned-long-haul-trucker.
The cast includes Stanley Tucci as tech guru Ethan Skate, Woody Norman as Michelle’s brother, Martin Klebba, and Giancarlo Esposito as robot bounty hunter Colonel Bradbury, with Jason Alexander, Brian Cox, Jenny Slate, Anthony Mackie, Billy Bob Thornton, Alan Tudyk, and Woody Harrelson lending their voices to various robots. Harrelson does, in fact, provide the voice for a giant robot version of the beloved American mascot Mr. Peanut.
“You can recognize humanity in technology, and you can recognizeinhumanityin humans,” Anthony Russo told Vanity Fair, speaking on the exclusive first look. “Both things are possible. That’s the struggle.”
