FILM PREVIEW - Dredd Geek Syndicate Synopsis: In a violent, futuristic city where the police have the authority to act as judge, jury and executioner, a cop teams with a trainee to take down a gang that deals the reality-altering drug, SLO-MO. Release (UK): 07 September 2012 Director: Pete Travis Writers: Alex Garland Stars: Karl Urban, Olivia Thirlby and Lena Headey Trailer: Dredd Geek Syndicate Says: “Any reservations about another film studio bringing Dredd to the big screen disappeared once Urban had been cast in the title role. The trailer that is now dong the rounds hasn’t changed our minds in the slightest. It looks like, come September, we are going to see on hell of a Dredd film.” 111
