The trailer for ENDER’S GAME got some pretty positive feedback when it debuted at the beginning of the month. The only complaint was that the trailer showed too much for your tastes. This seems to be a common practice these days unfortunately. Now you have to choose carefully what you plan to watch or even read for that matter.
A promo poster for the film has hit and it’s a rather simple one. Harrison Ford and Asa Butterfield are back to back. I have no real issues with this one. It doesn’t seem overly shopped, not to mention it’s not a full on poster. It’s simply a promo. I think Mondo should do some for this film and take some ideas from the book.
Synopsis: In the near future, a hostile alien race (called the Formics) have attacked Earth. If not for the legendary heroics of International Fleet Commander, Mazer Rackham (Ben Kingsley), all would have been lost. In preparation for the next attack, the highly esteemed Colonel Graff (Harrison Ford) and the International Military are training only the best young children to find the future Mazer. Ender Wiggin (Asa Butterfield), a shy, but strategically brilliant boy is pulled out of his school to join the elite. Arriving at Battle School, Ender quickly and easily masters increasingly difficult war games, distinguishing himself and winning respect amongst his peers. Ender is soon ordained by Graff as the military’s next great hope, resulting in his promotion to Command School. Once there, he’s trained by Mazer Rackham, himself, to lead his fellow soldiers into an epic battle that will determine the future of Earth and save the human race.
ENDER’S GAME starring Harrison Ford, Asa Butterfield, Abigail Breslin, Hailee Steinfeld and Viola Davis will hit theaters on November 1st, 2013.
