Surrogates, a futuristic thriller based on the graphic novel by Robert Venditti and Brett Weldele, opens this Friday. The film stars Bruce Willis as FBI Agent Harvey Greer.
The year is 2054, and life is reduced to a data feed. The fusing of virtual reality and cybernetics has ushered in the era of the personal surrogate, android substitutes that let users interact with the world without ever leaving their homes. It's a perfect world, and it's up to Greer to keep it that way.
But then the genius college student who invented the surrogates is murdered. As the case grows more complicated, however, the withdrawn detective discovers that in order to actually catch the killer he will have to venture outside the safety of his own home for the first time in many years, and enlists the aid of his own surrogate and that of another agent in tracking his target down.
