An early, and immensely popular strip in 2000AD was "Rogue Trooper", the story of the last surviving Genetic Infantryman (GI for short) who is committed to finding the General whose trairourous actions led to the deaths of all the other GI's.

Oddly, though he is the last living GI, he is assisted by three others, who remain as personailty chips built into his equipment: Bagman, Gunnar and Helm are in his backpack, assault rifle and helmet respectively.

And now, 45 years after his introduction, he's gettting an animated movie for the first time.





Directed by Duncan Jones, whose credits including: Moon, Source Code and Warcraft: The Beginning.

The voice cast includes Aneurin Barnard as Rogue, Jack Lowden as Gunnar, Daryl McCormack as Helm, Reece Shearsmith as Bagman.

Oh, and Hayley Atwell, Matt Berry, Asa Butterfield, Jemaine Clement, and Sean Bean in as yet unnamed roles.
