Watch the interview in the video below, or check it out over on our YouTube channel…
“GREY TRACE, a technophobe in a utopian near-future when computers control nearly everything – from cars to crime-surveillance – is paralyzed in a freak mugging that leaves his wife dead. But when a billionaire technologist offers him an experimental paralysis cure – an implanted computer chip called STEM – Grey finds that the chip has a voice and a mind of its own. Together Grey and STEM embark on a mission to avenge his wife’s death.”
Upgrade is set for release on June 1st in the US and sees Leigh Whannel directing a cast that includes Logan Marshall-Green, Betty Gabriel, Harrison Gilbertson, and Benedict Hardie.
