Ender's Game

Yesterday there was a first look at Ben Kingsley as Mazer Rackham from the film ENDER'S GAME and now the first footage from the film has been revealed. Unfortunately it's another one of those teasers for the trailer that consists of an introduction by the film's actors/director for forty seconds followed by a measly ten seconds of footage from the film. Stars Harrison Ford and Asa Butterfield bring us this first look at the film as well as an announcement: the first trailer for ENDER'S GAME will be released worldwide on Tuesday, May 7th. The trailer will debut during a Google+ hangout and feature a live conversation with Butterfield, director Gavin Hood and Producer Bob Orci.

One question though: why does it seem like Harrison Ford and Asa Butterfield took horse tranquilizers before they filmed the introduction?

Synopsis:

After an alien race called the Formics attacks Earth, the International Fleet prepare for the next invasion by training the best young children to find the future leader to lead the International Military. Ender Wiggin (Asa Butterfield), a shy but strategically brilliant boy, is pulled out of his school to join International Fleet and attend the legendary Battle School. After easily mastering the increasingly difficult war games, distinguishing himself and winning respect among his peers, Ender is soon ordained by Colonel Graff (Harrison Ford) as the military's next great hope, resulting in his promotion to Command School. Once there, he's trained by Mazer Rackham (Ben Kingsley) himself to lead the military into a war that will determine the future of Earth and the human race.

Also starring Abigail Breslin, Hailee Steinfeld, and Viola Davis, ENDER'S GAME is in theaters on November 1st, 2013.
