Now Playing: Tiny Tina's Wonderlands Full Presentation | Gearbox E3 2021

Hart said he trained with Navy SEALs to prepare for the role and he “got real good with weapons” and hand-to-hand combat.

Also in the interview, Hart said it’s been a surreal experience to film the Borderlands movie in Budapest with the assembled cast that includes a lot of other big names like Cate Blanchett and Jamie Lee Curtis.

“I mean, our cast is unreal,” Hart said, adding that director Eli Roth is “truly knocking this movie out of the park.” He also teased how the movie will look, visually speaking.

“And I can say visually, it’s like nothing you’ve ever seen,” he said. “Somehow I find myself in these spaces where you get a part of these IPs that are hitting the big screen and have the potential to become so much more. … Borderlands, nobody knows what to expect, but if this thing comes and it smacks people correctly, you could be looking at Borderlands 2, Borderlands 3. It’s that good.”

In addition to Hart (Roland), Blanchett (Lilith), and Curtis (Tannis), the Borderlands film features Jack Black (Claptrap) and Ariana Greenblatt (Tiny Tina). You can see the full cast list below. There is no word yet on a release date for the film.

In other news, a Borderlands spin-off game Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is coming early 2022 and it will have a lot of merch.
