Ariana Greenblatt, who played a young Gamora in “Avengers: Infinity War,” has joined the cast of Eli Roth’s film adaptation of the “Borderlands” video game franchise at Lionsgate.
The games follow a group of augmented mercenaries trying to hunt down an alien vault on the arid planet of Pandora rumored to contain advanced technology.
They find themselves battling the local wildlife and bandit population, and ultimately attempt to stop the head of a private corporate army from reaching the vault first.
Greenblatt, who also co-starred in Disney’s “The One and Only Ivan” and “Love and Monsters,” will play Tiny Tina, an unstable 13-year-old explosive expert. She joins Jack Black as sarcastic robot Claptrap, Cate Blanchett as the superpowered thief Lilith, Kevin Hart as skilled soldier Roland, and Jamie Lee Curtis as archeologist Tannis.
Emmy-winning “Chernobyl” creator Craig Mazin penned the script while Erik Feig, Avi Arad and Ari Arad are producing.
