Company Lionsgate continues to replenish the cast of the film adaptation Borderlands… An actor, comedian and musician has officially joined the work on the upcoming film Jack Black (“King Kong”, “Jumanji”).
The game part of the audience Jack Black should be well known from the cult action adventure game Brütal Legend, where he not only gave the voice to the main character Eddie Riggs, but also became his prototype. In the Borderlands film, Black will not star in person, but will voice the robot Claptrap (Piece of iron), who became one of the most recognizable characters in the franchise…
“I’m thrilled to be reunited with Jack, but this time in the recording studio. Claptrap is the funniest character in the game, and Jack is perfect for bringing him to the big screen,” said director Eli Roth.
In a statement, the president of the Lionsgate Motion Picture Group Nathan Kaan noted that Black’s selection for the role was “one of the simplest decisions the studio has ever made.”
