Cyberpunk 2077 Fan-Made Movie Trailer Looks Incredible
The release of Cyberpunk 2077 has been poorly received in a lot of ways. Many players have been coming up with theories explaining its rushed launch, bugs, and other problems that have plagued the game.
From its position as one of the most hyped games of last year, Cyberpunk 2077 crashed hard. A plethora of bugs and glitches, as well as several controversies surrounding the developer CD Projekt Red, created a rocky landing for this major title. However, many players have still found a lot to enjoy in Cyberpunk 2077, and some have gotten so invested that they have begun creating art inspired by it. One of the most recent examples is a fake film trailer for a Cyberpunk 2077 movie.
YouTuber Billy Crammer released a fan-made trailer for a Cyberpunk 2077 film utilizing in-game footage as well as clips from several other sources. Many of these include landscape shots from other prominent sci-fi films such as Ready Player One to simulate the feel of Night City in a non-game environment, and the original trailer for Cyberpunk 2077 is utilized. Considering Cyberpunk 2077 already draws on elements from several movies, the game itself becoming a film is not too farfetched.
Gameplay footage is used sparingly, since it doesn't look particularly realistic compared to live action in most cases. V riding a bike in two different locations and cocking a gun stick out against other shots, but these infrequent cuts are very quick and don't disturb the trailer's pace. There's just one thing missing from the trailer: Keanu Reeves. While he does make a brief appearance, one would think he'd be more prominent in a fake film trailer. Talking to Johnny Silverhand is important in Cyberpunk 2077, but he and V don't share a scene in the trailer.
Whether or not a Cyberpunk 2077 movie based on the tabletop game or CD Projekt Red's adaptation will ever manifest remains to be seen. A film certainly couldn't capture the life of Night City the way players have, but a Cyberpunk setting is almost always interesting to see.
Fan creations inspired by Cyberpunk 2077 have proven to be one of the coolest parts of the game's release. On top of cosplays, one fan created a Judy Alvarez painting that captures the character well. It's worth checking out what Cyberpunk 2077 has led to, even if one isn't interested in picking up the game itself.
Cyberpunk 2077 is available now on PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One, and is in development for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
