Neill Blomkamp makes a highly anticipated return this year with Elysium, promising to be by far one of the best movies of 2013.
The film marks his return since his outstanding feature debut with District 9 back in 2009, and we cannot wait to see his sophomore follow-up.
Sony launched an amazing first trailer back in April, giving us a fantastic first look at the film. And now the first TV spot has made its way online, bringing us an awesome new thirty-second look at the upcoming action/sci-fi blockbuster.
The impoverished inhabitants of a ruined planet Earth fight to join the safe and pristine living conditions of the space station Elysium, where only the wealthy and healthy reside. In need of medical treatment only available on Elysium, one resident of the planet’s slums attempts to reach the space station at any cost, and his actions could offset the entire balance of haves and have-nots.
Matt Damon leads a fantastic international cast, starring alongside Jodie Foster, Sharlto Copley, William Fichtner, Diego Luna, Alice Braga, and Faran Tahir.
Blomkamp is once more directing from his own script, with X-Men: First Class’ Simon Kinberg producing.
Elysium will be released in regular and IMAX theatres on August 9th in the US, followed by a 23rd August release date here in the UK. This is guaranteed to be utterly epic.
