New ‘Dredd’ Featurette Explains Film’s Backdrop

There is a Dredd reboot coming our way in case you have not heard.  The Pete Travis adaptation of this franchise promises to be a lot more than the Stallonian version that hit theaters in the 90′s, but perhaps a refresher on the source material is in order here.  A new featurette has just hit the web this week to chronicle the film’s backdrop which is that of a violent, futuristic city that contains cops who have excess authority.

Things you will learn from this one is that Judge Dredd is considered a genre transcending piece and that it is about the environment more than any other element of the story.  While that is not exactly what you want to hear about a movie, it should surely have sci-fi fans taking a good long look this property.

Stars of the film include Karl Urban, Olivia Thirlby, and Lena Headey.  Dredd releases into theaters nationwide September 21.
