So, Joost is releasing a book and everyone’s upset. I don’t get it? I also don’t get why SuperSport gave him the boot? Sure, he cocked up. (Pun intended.) Sure, he’s now capitalising on it.

Hardwired was the working title for I, Robot… a man-on-the-run Sci-Fi about the evolution of robot-kind starring Will Smith.
