Judge Dredd Reboot Movie Gets New Title And Synopsis

News

Apparently production company IM Global has been shopping around their Judge Dredd movie at the Toronto International Film Fest with this synopsis.

DREDD takes us to the wild streets of Mega City One, the lone oasis of quasi-civilization on Cursed Earth. Judge Dredd (Karl Urban) is the most feared of elite Street Judges, with the power to enforce the law, sentence offenders and execute them on the spot – if necessary. The endlessly inventive mind of writer Alex Garland and the frenetic vision of director Pete Travis bring DREDD to life as a futuristic neo-noir action film that returns the celebrated character to the dark, visceral incarnation from John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra’s revered comic strip.”

So it’s a neo-noir movie named Dredd. You know what? I can live with that.
