Who’s up for some more dead bugs? Don’t worry, STARSHIP TROOPERS: INVASION, the latest installment to the franchise, has you covered. The new Japanese subbed trailer is a lot more revealing than the previous teaser. The only question is: do you like what you see? Truth be told, while the cg looks alright, the trailer looks more like a cutscene to a random sci-fi videogame than a new STARSHIP TROOPERS to me. But hey, I’ll reserve judgment until I see the whole flick. Watch the trailer below and see what you make of it.
A distant Federation outpost Fort Casey comes under attack by bugs. The team on the fast attack ship Alesia is assigned to help the Starship John A. Warden stationed in Fort Casey evacuate along with the survivors and bring military intelligence safely back to Earth. Carl Jenkins, now ministry of Paranormal Warfare, takes the starship on a clandestine mission before its rendezvous with the Alesia and goes missing in the nebula. Now, the battle-hardened troopers are charged with a rescue mission that may lead to a much more sinister consequence than they ever could have imagined….
STARSHIP TROOPERS was directed by Shinji Aramaki and executive produced by Edward Neumeier (Starship Troopers franchise, RoboCop franchise) and Casper Van Dien.
