Real Steel Featurette

We haven't seen the lovely Hugh Jackman on the big screen for quite a while, it was 2009 X-Men Origins: Wolverine back in 2009.

But don't worry the ladies the wait is almost over as he is set to return next month with his new movie Real Steel.

The movie promises to be a white knuckle hit octane ride as Shawn Levy brings the world of robot boxing to the big screen.

In out new featurette Jackman and Levy take time out to talk about the movie, the story and the characters involved.

Real Steel is set in the near-future where the sport of boxing has gone high-tech. Jackman stars as Charlie Kenton, a washed-up fighter who lost his chance at a title when 2000-pound, 8-foot-tall steel robots took over the ring.

Now nothing but a small-time promoter, Charlie earns just enough money piecing together low-end bots from scrap metal to get from one underground boxing venue to the next.

When Charlie hits rock bottom, he reluctantly teams up with his estranged son Max (Dakota Goyo) to build and train a championship contender.

As the stakes in the brutal, no-holds-barred arena are raised, Charlie and Max, against all odds, get one last shot at a comeback.

Real Steel is released 14th October.
