Monster Hunter movie releases plot synopsis and has little to do with the game

If it weren't for the coronavirus pandemic, we might have already seen the movie version of Monster Hunter. Because of the pandemic, Sony Pictures has postponed the release of the movie to April next year. The studio recently released a plot introduction for the movie, which doesn't seem to have much to do with the original game.

"Behind our world, there is another world hidden: a world full of dangerous and powerful monsters who rule their territory brutally. A sudden sandstorm brings Lieutenant Artemis (Milla Jovovich) and her elite squad (TI Harris, Meagan Good, Diego Boneta) to this new world. The soldiers are shocked to find that in this unknown world full of dangers, there are huge and terrifying monsters living, and their firepower is completely ineffective against these monsters.

In this desperate fight for survival, the team encounters the mysterious Hunter (Tony Jaa), who has unique survival skills in the monster world, allowing him to always stay one step ahead of these powerful monsters. As Artemis and Hunter slowly build trust, she discovers that Hunter is part of a team led by the Admiral (Ron Perlman). Faced with a huge crisis that could destroy their world, these warriors unite and use their unique skills to usher in the final showdown. "
