First TV Spot for Gerard Butler’s ‘Gamer’
In Gamer Gerard Butler plays Kable, a death row inmate who has become the champion of an online game called ‘Slayers’. The story takes place in a future where mind-control technology has become the norm and the game ‘Slayers’ provides humans the ability to control other humans on a mass scale. To those that run the game Kable is nothing more than a human bot – a simulation. But to those who resist oppression, he is the key to overthrowing a high-tech system of slavery.
Gamer also stars Milo Ventimiglia, best known for his role as Peter Petrelli in NBC’s Heroes, as well as Michael C. Hall of the popular serial killer series, Dexter.
The first short TV spot has now been released. Watch it below:
