A whole grip of new Dredd photos blast their way onto the net

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Now that we know when Pete Travis’ 21st century DREDD remolding will hit theaters – September 21, 2012 – Empire has developed a whole clutch of new photos from the futuristic thriller. Karl Urban as the coldhearted judge as on display of course, as is the stunning Lena Headey and Olivia Thirlby…both packing more heat than Michael Mann’s ’95 crime caper. Scope it…

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 Peter 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.

Also pictured is actor Kevon Kane, looking quite ominous is his Rocketeer suit. Not sure if his artillery will, but his appearance certainly ain’t threatening the Judge!

Jason Cope, Joe Vaz, Langley Kirkwood and Warrick Grier also star in the film.
