Based on Simon St?lenhag’s graphic novel of the same name, The Electric State is set in an alternate version of the 1990s and follows Michelle (played by Stranger Things’ Brown) “an orphaned teenager navigating life in a society where sentient robots resembling cartoons and mascots, who once served peacefully among humans, now live in exile following a failed uprising,” according to the official synopsis.

Michelle’s world is thrown into disarray after being visited by Cosmo (voiced by Resident Alien’s Alan Tudyk), a robot who seems to be controlled by her younger brother, who was previously thought to be dead. “Determined to find the beloved sibling she thought she had lost, Michelle sets out across the American southwest with Cosmo, and soon finds herself reluctantly joining forces with Keats (Guardians of the Galaxy’s Chris Pratt), a low-rent smuggler, and his wisecracking robot sidekick Herman (voiced by Twisted Metal’s Anthony Mackie),” the synopsis continues. “As they venture into the Exclusion Zone, a walled-off corner in the desert where robots now exist on their own, Keats and Michelle find a strange, colorful group of new animatronic allies — and begin to learn that the forces behind Christopher’s disappearance are more sinister than they ever expected.”

The film also stars Ke Huy Quan (Everything Everywhere All at Once), Jason Alexander (Seinfeld), Giancarlo Esposito (Breaking Bad), Stanley Tucci (Julie & Julia) and Woody Norman (Poldark). Meanwhile, Woody Harrelson (True Detective), Brian Cox (Succession) and Jenny Slate (Bob’s Burgers) lend their voices to other robots.
