Chappie is an upcoming science-fiction comedy film co-written and directed by Neill Blomkamp. The film stars Sharlto Copley, Hugh Jackman, Dev Patel, and Sigourney Weaver. The film is scheduled to be released on March 6, 2015, by Columbia Pictures.



Every child comes into the world full of promise, and none more so than Chappie: he is gifted, special, a prodigy. Like any child, Chappie will come under the influence of his surroundings – some good, some bad – and he will rely on his heart and soul to find his way in the world and become his own man. But there's one thing that makes Chappie different from anyone else: he is a robot. The first robot with the ability to think and feel for himself. His life, his story, will change the way the world looks at robots and humans forever.



I am a fan of all that is Blomkamp - I truly enjoy the way he paints current issues with a sci-fi brush.... I can't wait for this release!
