Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Atlas was just entertaining enough, but there's only one way I would be interested in watching another movie set in this world. As a sci-fi fan with a special place in my heart for a good mech battle, the Netflix movie had me intrigued. The project was especially interesting given Jennifer Lopez's involvement since this isn't the genre this star is typically associated with.
Netflix's Atlas Needs A Harlan Prequel Before It Can Continue With A Sequel We Need More Answers About Harlan's Turn To Evil Before The Villain Can Return Atlas spent a lot of time setting up the big reveal that Lopez's character was the one who made Harlan aware of humanity's threat to the environment, but it didn't commit to the bit.
An Atlas Prequel Wouldn't Have Jennifer Lopez Lana Parrilla's Performance In Atlas Warrants A Leading Prequel Role Close Of course, a significant draw for Atlas was Lopez's leading role, and since Harlan turned to evil while her character was only a child, the actor couldn't return for a prequel movie. However, with the promise of more Atlas and Smith movies, Netflix might be able to get away with focusing instead on Lana Parrilla's Val Shepherd.
I'd Be More Interested In Atlas & Smith's Story If A Prequel Sets A Stronger Foundation Though Harlan's weak backstory was a disappointment, this isn't to say that Atlas didn't have promise as a longer movie franchise. The film carried some interesting themes about the connection between living beings and what these ties mean when a person dies.
