Marko Zaror Joins ALITA: BATTLE ANGEL

Marko Zaror has been added to the cast of Alita: Battle Angel, which is currently in production in Austin, Texas.

Robert Rodriguez is directing the big-screen adaptation of Kishiro Yukito's manga series Gunnm, aka Battle Angel Alita. James Cameron cowrote the screenplay and is producing.

The manga followed a cyborg who has lost nearly all memories. Known as Alita, the cyborg is rebuilt by a cybernetics doctor. She remembers only one thing: that she was trained by a legendary martial artist/cyborg known as Panzer Kunst. So she becomes a bounty hunter and searches for her elusive past.

Rosa Salazar stars as Alita, with Christoph Waltz (as the cybernetics doctor), Mahershala Ali and Ed Skrein leading the cast of supporting players. According to the IMDb listing, Zaror is portraying a character named Ajakutty. In addition to the listing, we have confirmation on the news from a trusted source.

Alita: Battle Angel is scheduled for theatrical release on July 20, 2018.
