Project Detail
Ultramarines: A Warhammer 40,000 Movie
Synopsis
ULTRAMARINES is a tense science-fantasy action thriller set in the 41st Millenium, when the galaxy is burning and there is nothing but war.
Mankind's sole defence against the lurking alien races are the Space Marines, genetically enhanced super-warriors, for whom loyalty to their emperor is all. The most fearless chapter of this mighty army is the Ultramarines. Based on the internationally successful futuristic table-top war strategy game, WARHAMMER 40,000, ULTRAMARINES uses state-of the art facial capture technology and stunning CGI animation to bring powerfully to life the Space Marines characters and their adversaries.
With a voice cast led by Terence Stamp (Superman, Valkyrie), John Hurt (Alien, Hellboy) and Sean Pertwee (Event Horizon, Dog Soldiers), this is the first-ever feature length movie interpretation of the Warhammer 40,000 universe.

Live action characters venture into a neo-futuristic shopping mall and are then corrupted and distorted by their own desire for consumerism. The animation breaks through the live action shell and reveals savage desires then reconstructs itself - the world is never the same again.
