Produced and directed by Joe and Anthony Russo, The Electric State is the science fiction action-adventure film loosely based on the 2018 illustrated novel by Simon Stålenhag.
Set in an alternate, retro-futuristic version of the 1990s, where sentient robots once served peacefully among humans, now live in exile following a failed uprising, Michelle (Millie Bobby Brown), an orphaned teenager has her world upended when she’s visited by Cosmo, a sweet, mysterious robot who appears to be controlled her genius younger brother. Determined to find the beloved sibling she thought she had lost, Michelle sets out with Cosmo, and soon finds herself reluctantly joining forces with Keats (Chris Pratt), a low-rent smuggler, and his wisecracking robot sidekick, Herman (voiced by Anthony Mackie).
