First Images Revealed From Duncan Jones’ Rogue Trooper MovieFirst Images Revealed From Duncan Jones’ Rogue Trooper Movie

The eagerly anticipated movie adaptation of classic British comic Rogue Trooper, written and directed by Duncan Jones (Moon, Source Code, Warcraft, Mute), has today released four still images offering fans their first look at the upcoming movie.

The first of the new images shows breakout talent Aneurin Barnard (The Goldfinch, Dunkirk) as the Rogue Trooper. Alongside this, we see Jemaine Clement (Avatar 2: The Way of Water) and Matt Berry (What We Do in the Shadows) as scheming battleground looters Mr Brass and Mr Bland. We also get a glimpse of a hulking war vehicle roaming the planet Nu Earth, where the brutal war between the Norts and Southers takes place. The third image depicts two Souther soldiers, lost, traversing the toxic wasteland and battlefield.

Duncan Jones will be appearing at San Diego Comic Con on 25 July (2-3pm PDT at the Rebellion stand, booth number 2121) to meet fans and sign a limited run of the Rogue Trooper hero image.

Director Duncan Jones said: “AHHHHHHHHHHHH! WE’RE ALMOST FINISHED! SEE YOU AT SDCC!!

Behind the scenes images of actors Jemaine Clement and Matt Berry as Mr Brass and Mr Bland were also released, illustrating the facial capture technology used in the creation of Rogue Trooper.

Producer Stuart Fenegan explained: “We are so excited to share a first look of the film and show the amazing fidelity with which the team have used our actors on set performances to drive the animated characters. That level of detail and nuance was a priority from day one.”

An animated science fiction feature from Rebellion and Liberty Films, Rogue Trooper tells the story of 19, a ‘Genetic Infantryman’, who finds himself the sole-survivor of an invasion force. Desperate to track down the traitor who sold him and his comrades out, the super soldier is accompanied by three killed-in-action squad mates, whose personalities have been stored in his gun, helmet and backpack.

The Rogue Trooper movie features an ensemble cast, that also includes Hayley Atwell (Captain America: The First Avenger, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One and Part Two), Jack Lowden (Slow Horses, Dunkirk), Daryl McCormack (Bad Sisters; Good Luck To You, Leo Grande), and Reece Shearsmith (Inside No. 9, Saltburn), Diane Morgan (Cunk on Earth), Alice Lowe (Black Mirror), Asa Butterfield (Sex Education, Hugo) and Sean Bean (Game of Thrones, The Lord of the Rings).

Principal Photography was completed in 2024 utilising the cutting-edge Head Mounted Camera (HMC) technology and expertise of Motion Grinder (Indiana Jones and The Great Circle). Imagery and animation partner Treehouse Digital (The Well) processed and applied the data to the characters within Unreal Engine 5, handing over to Liberty Films’ own VFX and animation teams to light and finalise, bringing the incredible world of Rogue Trooper to life.

The film is produced by Stuart Fenegan (Moon, Source Code, Warcraft, Mute) alongside Jason Kingsley (Dredd, School’s Out Forever), Chris Kingsley (Dredd, School’s Out Forever) and Duncan Jones.

Rogue Trooper was created by legendary artist Dave Gibbons (Watchmen, Kingsman) and writer Gerry Finley-Day (Dan Dare).
