2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY Gets its First New Trailer in 40 Years

A digitally restored edition of Stanley Kubrick's classic sci-fi film 2001: A Space Odyssey is set to premiere in the UK on November 28th at the British Film Institute’s "Sci-Fi: Days of Fears and Wonder" season. In anticipation of the event, a new official trailer has been released that was commissioned by the BFI and Warner Bros. This is the first new trailer for the movie that has been released in forty years

The trailer was cut together by Ignition Creative London, and as you'll see it uses Hal as the central figure to create an intense and eerie experience. A statement was released by Jan Harlan, Kubrick’s executive producer who described this as “the best trailer for this film I have ever seen! To use Hal’s voice is brilliant." 

I love this movie, and it's one of those classics that I still haven't seen on the big screen. Hopefully one day we get to see this digitally restored print play here in the states — preferably Los Angeles because that's where I live.
