The first live-action Borderlands movie based on the video game of the same name came out on August 9, 2024. Fans of the franchise seem very excited for this one, as they get to see their characters come to life. However, they are also curious to know whether or not a sequel to the film will be coming. So, let’s take a look at the Borderlands 2 release date and when it is coming out.
Here’s all the Borderlands 2 movie release date information we know so far, along with all the details on when it will be released.
Is there a Borderlands 2 release date?
Borderlands 2 does not have an official release date, but it will likely be announced in the future.
The film is based on the video game and does not follow its exact storyline. Hence, the Borderlands video game having multiple parts does not mean that the film will necessarily have a sequel too. However, Gearbox founder and CEO Randy Pitchford spoke to IGN in an interview about the same. He made it clear that he definitely wants to see another movie happen.
In the interview, he said, “One of the cool things about the movie is we’ve created a cinematic universe that lives side by side with the video game universe. And, of course, the characters are there and authentic in the themes and even some of the storylines. But they’re independent storylines.” Further, he added, “I really hope there’s more than one movie. I think it’s reasonable to imagine that we will start talking about the next Borderlands movie here. Maybe before the end of the year, we’ll see. Maybe sooner.”
Therefore, it is very likely that we will soon hear more about a second movie. As of this writing, the movie is a fresh release, and the filmmakers will want to see how well it does.
Where will Borderlands 2 come out?
Borderlands 2 could come out in theaters.
As the first part came out in theaters, with Lionsgate as its distributor, a sequel to the film will most likely come out in theaters as well. However, Lionsgate does have partnerships with streaming services and could also consider releasing it there.
