I was lucky enough to get to see a very early screening of Real Steel a few weeks ago ahead of a great interview that I conducted with director, Shawn Levy at the Empire Big Screen weekend. I’m not allowed to tell you what I thought of it yet but while we wait for the release of the movie on 14th October, Dreamworks have released this new featurette for the movie which gives you a little idea of what you can expect.

It gives you a little look at how they were able to make the robots look so life like as you’ll see in the featurette using forming boxing professional and general boxing legend, Sugar Ray Leonard as their advisor. The movie has a great cast which includes Kevin Durand, Evangeline Lilly, Hugh Jackman, Anthony Mackie, Dakota Goyo and Hope Davis. I’ll stop writing now to give you a chance to watch the featurette but keep your eyes peeled in the coming weeks and months for much more from Real Steel.
