The trailer for the animated movie sequel Starship Troopers: Traitor Of Mars has landed online ahead of its Stateside theatrical release later this summer. The film is an all-new CG animated sequel of the 1997 cult classic Starship Troopers, and comes to the scree from the writer of the original movie and Robocop, Ed Neumeier.
Johnny Rico has just been demoted and sent to a small satellite station on Mars whilst the Federation attacks the bugs’ home planet. While trying to train his new recruits on this remote quiet station, the bugs show up in a surprise attack but the Federation’s Fleet is too far away to help. It’s up to Rico and his Troopers to save the planet and uncover how the bugs made it so close to home.
This animated film will feature the return of Casper Van Dien and Dina Meyer as the voices of Johnny Rico and Dizzy Flores alongside Starship Troopers super fan and comedian DeRay Davis.
