Portal: No Escape. Director Dan Trachtenberg has re-envisioned a grittier take on Portal. Starring Danielle Rayne in the role of Chell, although, with her never speaking a word, that’s never explicitly stated. She’s kept prisoner in a room and eventually discovers the Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device (the proper, fancy name for the Portal gun) and uses it to escape, only to realize she’s in a test chamber. The fan-favorite Companion Cube doesn’t make it an appearance, nor does GLaDOS or any cake, though you do get to see a few Aperture Science Weighted Storage Cubes.
