Lilith (Cate Blanchett) looking smug in Borderlands
Summary Despite its impressive ensemble cast, the Borderlands movie is missing many of the most recognizable and compelling characters from the Borderlands video games. While some fans believe this was by choice — Borderlands' missing characters set up a sequel, in some ways — director Eli Roth's decision to pull from all the installments in the franchise and craft a new story around the bounty hunter Lilith resulted in massive alterations.
3 9 Brick There's no denying that Borderlands missing characters make a sequel more likely, especially since one of those missing characters is Brick. A Berserker class character in Borderlands, Brick also appears as a non-playable character in most of the other franchise installments. Needless to say, Brick is a constant presence throughout the series, and it's strange that he was cut from the Borderlands movie.
7 Gaige Gaige DiMartino, a Mechromancer class character, was added to Borderlands 2 as a part of the post-launch DLC, but that doesn't make her any less memorable. If anything, the Tiny Tina featured in the Borderlands movie seems more akin to Gaige — at least personality-wise. A high school student with a penchant for livestreams, Gaige is most interested in the history of Pandora, from the Vaults to Eridium.
1 5 Pain & Terror Originally, Penn Jillette was going to have a cameo role in Eli Roth's Borderlands, playing a preacher who would oversee a wedding. Sadly, the cameo from the Borderlands voice actor, who plays Pain, was cut from the final film. While that's a shame in its own right, it's also a bummer that Pain and Terror didn't appear in the Borderlands movie. In Borderlands 3, Pain and Terror are bandits who become enthralled by the Calypso Twins' talk of family.
