Jennifer Lopez as Atlas Shepherd
Atlas is the daughter of the scientist whose AI experiment ushered the world into a new era. Twenty-eight years after that technological breakthrough, Atlas is a counter-terrorism analyst working for the International Coalition of Nations (ICN). When her superior approaches her with a mission, she heads out into the field to confront her “brother” — the AI terrorist who led the robot revolution.
Simu Liu as Harlan
Harlan is the first AI terrorist — and, in a twisted way, Atlas’ brother, created by her mother to serve humanity. In the wake of his betrayal and a devastating military campaign against human forces, he fled Earth and has spent the last 28 years biding his time on planet GR39.
Sterling K. Brown as Colonel Elias Banks
Colonel Banks is the commanding officer of the mission to GR39, a veteran ICN official who accepts Atlas’ presence on the voyage without always listening to her input.
Mark Strong as General Jake Boothe
General Boothe is the ICN officer who brings the Harlan mission to Atlas. While she’s initially reluctant, her close personal ties to the AI terrorist make it impossible to resist.
Gregory James Cohan as the voice of Smith
Smith is Atlas’ AI companion, present in the film only as a voice inside her mech suit. As the film proceeds, the initially combative duo learn to work with each other, in spite of Atlas’ many reservations.
Abraham Popoola as Casca Vix
Casca Vix is one of Harlan’s most formidable AI soldiers. His capture at the beginning of the film sets the mission to GR-39 into motion.
Lana Parrilla as Val Shepherd
Val Shepherd is Atlas’ mother and Harlan’s creator — the tragic harbinger of the AI menace.
