All of which contributes to a general feeling of doubt and suspicion in relation to a piece of concept art said to have been leaked. JJ Abrams seems so adept at keeping his cards close to his chest, it seems altogether implausible that such a clear and detailed image would escape. The fact that the original poster of the image says that his friend’s brother’s wife works for a marketing company and was e-mailed the image from Paramount by mistake only heightens the sense of disbelief.
In all honesty though, it is a shame, since the image looks great and would make for a suitably menacing, dangerous alien/creature. For what it’s worth, here’s the image. Thanks to Movieviral for the story.
