In the new Netflix film "The Electric State," a robot named Cosmo features a large, round head and a slender body. Cosmo's design is inspired by a character from Simon Stalenhag's graphic novel, which depicts a post-war California. The film, directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, follows Cosmo and a girl named Michelle on a quest to find her brother. They encounter various uniquely designed robots along the way, enhancing the film's imaginative setting. The directors aimed to blend fantastical elements with a sense of reality, reflecting the 1990s backdrop. This approach contrasts with the more whimsical designs of the original graphic novel.
