Director Gareth Edwards may be best known for Rogue One, and the 2014 Godzilla and The Creator is only his fourth full-length feature film as a director - but there’s no getting around the buzz surrounding The Creator, as it’s set to open in Philippine theaters come Oct. 4. On an $80 million budget, it’s already being touted as the film that achieves world-building of blockbuster scale at a fraction of the usual cost.

The futuristic world-building is established early on, as we’re thrust into a near future where AI detonated a nuclear device in Los Angeles, and AI beings are now outlawed in the USA and hunted down and eliminated. Over in New Asia, AI thrives, living beside humans every day. Nirmata is the term used to denote the creator, who leads the existing AI beings.

There’s Ken Watanabe as Harun, a guerilla leader in New Asia. There’s Allison Janey as Howell, a hardnose military type who leads the black ops mission that enlists Joshua years after the prologue and seeks to put an end to the Nirmata and help hasten the downfall of AI via the use of their NOMAD defense system. At some point, we meet Alphie , a young girl who is in possession of unusual powers .
