MOVIE WEEK: Mortal Engines billboards...

Yesterday we shined a spotlight on a robot-in-disguise and today the focus is on a new movie in which cities in a post-apocalyptic future have been turned into giant, moving monstrosities in Mortal Engines.

The movie directed by Christian Rivers is based on Philip Reeve's 2001 book of the same name, the first of a quartet of novels set in a futuristic, steampunk version of the world which has been decimated hundreds of years before.

On an Earth of predator cities, where it's survival of the fastest, the mysterious, scarred 'Hester Shaw' (Hera Hilmar) is the key to stopping the ferocious Traction City of London.

But she can't do it alone, and she's helped by the London outcast 'Tom Natsworthy' (Robert Sheehan) and the aerial outlaw with a bounty on her head, 'Anna Fang' (Jihae).

These striking movie billboards were photographed along Fairfax Avenue, La Cienega Boulevard, Beverly Boulevard, Cahuenga Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard from November 21 to December 1, 2018.

Can Mortal Engines survive the onslaught of blockbuster holiday movies this Christmas, or will it get crushed underfoot by mightier film franchises comprised of transforming robots, magical nannies and aquatic superheroes.
