Longtime James Cameron fans who have watched his post-Titanic career with curiosity know that the director has long mulled over a live-action adaptation of Kishiro Yukito’s manga Alita: Battle Angel, but it was another case where Cameron was waiting for technology to catch up with his vision – that is – until it was announced that Robert Rodriguez (Machete) would be helming the project with Cameron producing.

Rodriguez is currently putting finishing touches on Alita: Battle Angel, which is due in theaters on July 20, 2018.

The film stars Rosa Salazar (Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials), Christoph Waltz (Django Unchained), Mahershala Ali (Luke Cage), Ed Skrein (Deadpool), Michelle Rodriguez (The Assignment), Jackie Earle Haley (Shutter Island), Jeff Fahey (The Lawnmower Man), Casper Van Dien (Starship Troopers) and martial arts star Marko Zaror (Redeemer).

According to THR, Alita: Battle Angel is about a female cyborg that is discovered in a trash yard by a scientist. With no memory of her previous life except her deadly martial arts training, the woman becomes a bounty hunter, tracking down criminals.
