The first trailer for Jason Reitman's "Up in the Air" has hit the net and I have it here for you below courtesy of Slash Film. The first trailer gives us a decent look at the cast of characters in Reitman's latest film and is narrated by George Clooney from a particular scene from the film. "Up in the Air" premiered at Telluride Festival in Colorado last week and was very well received and this first trailer continues that thought. Checkout the trailer below and "Up in the Air" releases December 4th.
Put George Clooney, Ewan McGregor, Jeff Bridges and Kevin Spacey in a movie and you already have my full attention, but then you tell me they are all starring in a film adaption of one of 2004's best books and I am estatic! What book am I talking about you ask? The Men Who Stare at Goats a non-fiction book written by Jon Ronson about the United States government and its research on New Age concepts and the potential military applications of the paranormal. Sound wacky, it is! What's better is the movie looks to have nailed the tone of the book and I can't wait till November 6th, when "The Men Who Stare at Goats" releases. The film is directed by Grant Heslov and Peter Straughan adapted the screenplay from Ronson novel. Take a gander at the trailer below...
Last week our first two posters for Jason Reitman's latest comedy "Up in the Air" starring George Clooney hit the net and this week 3 new images have surfaced around the net and I have them here for you below. "Up in the Air" is based off a 2001 novel of the same name by Walter Kirn and follows Ryan Bingham (Clooney) who flies around the country for his company firing corporate employees hoping to collect 10 million frequent flyer miles before he himself is fired. The first image is of George Clooney (in what seems to be) him looking at a flight schedule board. The second image peers into what could be one of many corporate downsizing meetings Clooney's character will be apart of and the third features the talented Anna Kendrick as she sorts through her luggage pre or post-flight. "Up in the Air" does not have an official release date locked down for 2009 but is premiering at the Toronto Film Festival next month. Checkout the new images below...
