They've genderswapped Knoxx and had to create a man named Atlas to be the face of the corporation? what the hell are they even adapting? just an original story using names we know?
I was talking about this to my girlfriend when the first trailer dropped. Honestly they should have done an original story and named the movie borderlands 4. Make it cannon to the games and it would have fit perfectly with how absurd borderlands is. That way you can craft a bespoke story that fits in movie for instead of having to worry about adaptation.
Didn't genderswap Knoxx... Apparently that's his daughter.
Which is somehow worse.
Did he... have a daughter? I remember him being a very burnt out lonely man full of ennui, I guess in my head that meant he never had kids or married
Also that means this canonically takes place after Borderlands 1, but Atlas still has a presence on Pandora?
