We still have a number of news items to bring you from this past weekend's WonderCon. While Prometheus and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter were the big films on display, another movie being promoted at the event was Lockout.
Produced by Luc Besson, Lockout is a sci-fi starring Guy Pearce that looks to be heavily inspired by Escape From New York. A 5 minute clip was released at WonderCon and we now have it for you to watch.
“Starring Guy Pearce and Maggie Grace and set in the near future, LOCKOUT follows a falsely convicted ex- government agent (Pearce), whose one chance at obtaining freedom lies in the dangerous mission of rescuing the President’s daughter (Grace) from rioting convicts at an outer space maximum security prison.”
Lockout will be released to theaters on April 13th, and is directed by James Mather and Stephen St. Leger. The main cast includes Guy Pearce, Maggie Grace, Peter Stormare, Vincent Regan, Lennie James, Joseph Gilgun, and Anne-Solenne Hatte.
