First Alita: Battle Angel Clip Is A Wild Cybernetic Showdown

<p>Alita: Battle Angel is the long-awaited live action adaptation of the classic manga, and it has been a dream project for writer/producer James Cameron for many years. The movie finally arrives in February 2019, and a first clip has now been released.</p><p>The clip was shown at <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/god-of-war-wins-game-of-the-year-at-game-awards-20/1100-6463733/">The Game Awards</a> in LA. It shows a confrontation between cybernetic fighting machine Alita (Rosa Salazar) and a trio of deadly assassins who have ambushed her and Dr. Ido (Christoph Waltz). It definitely captures the wild cyberpunk action of the source material--check it out above.</p><p>This clip follows the<a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/new-alita-battle-angel-trailer-unleashes-cyborg-ma/1100-6463209/"> latest trailer</a>, which recapped much of the basic plot and was released in October. Alita: Battle Angel also stars Jennifer Connelly (Hulk), <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/luke-cage-villain-actor-in-talks-to-join-james-cam/1100-6444160/">Mahershala Ali</a> (Moonlight, Luke Cage), Ed Skrein (Deadpool), and Jackie Earle Haley (Watchmen). It's directed by Sin City's Robert Rodriguez.</p><p>The movie was originally set for release in July this year, but was delayed a couple of times and now hits theaters on February 14, 2019.</p><p>When the first trailer debuted last year, the movie attracted <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/alita-battle-angel-director-defends-uncanny-and-st/1100-6455618/">some controversy</a> for the look of the title character--specifically, her large, unnatural eyes. Rodriguez explained at San Diego Comic Con in July that he wanted <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/comic-con-2018-why-alita-battle-angels-eyes-are-so/1100-6460634/">a realistic depiction</a> of the source material, echoing James Cameron's wishes to bring the manga to life.</p>
