The Untold Truth Of Alita Battle Angel

When it was released into theaters in 2019, Alita: Battle Angel didn’t make the kind of big box office splash that would be expected from such a high concept, CGI-heavy film. Co-written by James Cameron and directed by Robert Rodriguez, Alita had the kind of creative power behind it that studios dream of, while its source material, the ‘90s manga Battle Angel Alita, was known for its originality and ultimately hopeful message about humanity.

It took years to bring the story of Alita to the screen — originally announced back in 2003, the film was delayed for a number of reasons. From the involvement of a legendary filmmaker to the future of the franchise, this is the untold truth of Alita: Battle Angel.
