Future World is a wild and nutty story directed by James Franco and Bruce Thierry Cheung. The movie arrives the inside a desert oasis. A queen, played by Lucy Liu, lies dying as her son Prince, played by Jeffrey Wahlberg, travels across barren wastelands to find a near-mythical medicine to save his mother’s life.
Prince evades violent raiders on motorbikes led by the Warlord, played by James Franco, and his enforcer, played by Cliff “Method Man” Smith. He meets Ash, played by Suki Waterhouse. Ash is the Warlord’s robot sex companion assassin. Her mission is to find her soul.
Druglord, played by Milla Jovovich, captures Prince. Warlord and his motorcycle forces roar in to attack them. With all that happening, Prince fights to save the remnants of humanity.
The cast includes Margarita Levieva, Snoop Dogg, and George Lewis Jr.
Cheung co-wrote the screenplay with Jeremy Craig Cheung and Jay Davis
It’s not the first time Cheung and Franco worked together. Cheung directed Franco in their 9-part series Making a Scene with James Franco.
If you think the plot sounds convoluted, watch the movie trailer. You will see an awful lot of craziness.
