Alice in Wonderland with machine guns!

Dragons, B-52 bombers and brothels...

 

In 2011 we will be graced with the imagining of writers Steve Shibuya and Zack Snyder. An action-fantasy film with an all female cast set in the 1950 (Can you say; ‘Pin Up Girls’?) and starring the stunning Emily Browning with her excellent supporting cast of Abbie Cornish, Jena Malone, Vanessa Hugens, and Jamie Chung.

This film, SUCKER PUNCHED, will follow a young girl about to be lobotomized (OUCH) as she attempts to escape an insane asylum with her beautiful inmates. This amazing movie is scheduled to be released in both IMAX and conventional theatres on March 25^th 2011.

The cast had to take fight evaluations and will be demonstrating amazing technique from the stunt coordinator from 300 and Watchmen. The girls training requires them to deadlift 210 pounds for their roles and they will have to master their stunts, training and choreography to create the spectacular performance Snyder demands of his actors.

Snyder tells that when the girls are fighting, "[like] they're on their way to kill a baby dragon, they've killed all of these orc-like creatures and they're entering a door [and] it's this classic, real Navy SEAL style room clearing. They have machine guns but they're fighting mythic creatures, impossible creatures. The hand to hand stuff is all brutal, because Damon [Caro] did all the [fights] in Bourne and it has that vibe to it." In the characters' imaginations, Snyder remarks, "they can do anything."

This movie has been described as ‘Alice in Wonderland with machine guns’ and ‘in the end, it’s about this girl’s survival and what she needs to do to be able to cope.’ –Snyder

SUCKER PUNCH is an epic action fantasy that takes the viewers into the vivid imagination of a Baby-Doll, whose dream world is the ultimate escape from her painful reality. Unrestrained by the boundaries of time and place, she is free, and her incredible adventures blur the lines between the asylum and her fantasy world.

Watch Baby-Doll as she urges the outspoken Rocket, street-smart Blondie, loyal Amber and reluctant Sweet Pea to band together and try to escape their terrible fate!

Their unbelievable journey—if they succeed—will set them free.
