USA Network has released official key art for their upcoming hacker drama, Mr. Robot. Ahead of their June premiere, get ready to see the "F-Bombs" ads campaign for the exciting new series starring Christian Slater (Pump Up The Volume) and Rami Malek (The Pacific) in all its glory.
As we previously mentioned, Mr. Robot centers on a young and isolated programmer named Elliot (Malek). Suffering from an anti-social disorder, Elliot can only connect to people by actually hacking them. Elliot is then recruited to join an underground hacker organization determined to bring down corporate America by a mysterious anarchist named Mr. Robot (Slater).
According to Entertainment Weekly, the eye-popping marketing campaign bleeps out the four letter word but it's not difficult to fill in the blanks. Let's be mature adults here as the ads display, "F-k Wall Street," "F-k Society," "F-k Social Media," "F-k the System." Ok, now that we're all done chuckling, the critic loves the foul-mouthed campaign, which is in tune to Eliot's character.
Since the drama is aimed for adults and not for children, the ads are expected to run online. Check out the F-Bomb ads here on EW and Deadline:
