Rooster Teeth has unveiled a new poster for their upcoming mecha series gen:LOCK ahead of their panel at New York Comic Con this weekend. The animated web series will feature the voices of David Tennant and Michael B Jordan and is set to launch early next year.
Set in a dystopian future where conflict is settled by battles using giant weaponised robotic armour, gen:LOCK centres on Earth’s last free society which is on the losing side of a global war. David Tennant voices scientist Dr. Rufus 'Doc' Weller, the leader of the Experimental Science Unit and the inventor of the 'gen:LOCK' technology, the next generation of mecha, controlled by a diverse team of young pilots. Michael B. Jordan voices main character Julian Chase, Dakota Fanning plays mech pilot Miranda Worth and Kōichi Yamadera voices new recruit Kazu Iida. gen:LOCK is co-produced by Jordan through his own company Outlier Society Productions.
The creators of the show have also announced new cast members to join the already starry cast. Award-winning Iranian actress Golshifteh Farahani (Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales) will voice field agent Yasamin "Yaz" Madrani.
