Take the 2-minute tour ×  Is the new Judge Dredd movie Dredd 3D
an adaptation or inspired by a specific storyline in the comics

vote 8 down vote accepted  No, Dredd 3D is not an adaptation or
inspired by a specific storyline.  Alex Garland did consider
adapting one of the more well known Judge Dredd storylines such
as Origins, but decided that that he would not adapt such a big
epic and instead went for an approach of writing an original
story - a kind of 'day in the life of Judge Dredd'.  You can
read more about this in this Empire interview.  share|improve
