New TOMORROWLAND Poster is Here, Trailer Coming on Monday
For me, Brad Bird's Tomorrowland is one of 2015's big mysteries - and I'm sure that's exactly how the filmmakers want it. Bird teamed with Lost showrunner Damon Lindelof to write the screenplay, based on a mysterious box they found in the Disney archives labeled "1952." George Clooney and Britt Robertson are starring, and though we've already seen a teaser trailer (with full analysis) and a Super Bowl TV spot, we still don't really know THAT much about the movie. Which is great! I love this approach to marketing, and I'm always a fan of going into a film knowing as little as possible. You only get to have your first theatrical experience with a movie once, and I often prefer to be as surprised as possible during that experience.
Now Disney has released a new poster for the movie (above), as well as the news that this coming Monday, there will be a live Q&A with Bird and Lindelof followed by the exclusive world premiere of the trailer at 10:30am PT on Facebook at the following link: https://facebook.com/WaltDisneyStudios. We'll be sure to publish it on GeekTyrant when it goes up, and I'm hoping the trailer continues to not give too much away.
From Disney comes two-time Oscar® winner Brad Bird’s riveting, mystery adventure “Tomorrowland,” starring Academy Award® winner George Clooney. Bound by a shared destiny, former boy-genius Frank (Clooney), jaded by disillusionment, and Casey (Britt Robertson), a bright, optimistic teen bursting with scientific curiosity, embark on a danger-filled mission to unearth the secrets of an enigmatic place somewhere in time and space known only as “Tomorrowland.” What they must do there changes the world—and them—forever.
Featuring a screenplay by “Lost” writer and co-creator Damon Lindelof and Brad Bird, from a story by Lindelof & Bird & Jeff Jensen, “Tomorrowland” promises to take audiences on a thrill ride of nonstop adventures through new dimensions that have only been dreamed of.
What do you think about Tomorrowland so far? Looking forward to it? The film arrives in theaters on May 22nd, 2015.
