A 7 minute extended trailer for 20th Century Fox’s blockbuster Christmas release THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL played on Fox last night just before J.J. Abrams’ new show Fringe.
You can see it below.
I still say Keanu Reeves is so wrong for this. Can you really believe him as an alien? He is too famous an actor, especially too famous for playing it stiff for this role to be effective. I mean he ain’t playing the role any different to how he plays any other, so how are we suppose to be believe he is an alien?
It’s just the regular Reeves performance!
The movie opens in the U.K. and U.S. on December 12th, Jennifer Connelly, Kathy Bates and John Cleese co-star. Scott Derrickson (THE EXORCISM OF EMILY ROSE) directs.
Thanks to Cinema Blend for the vid!

He lloks just like John Constantine. it almost too easy for him to play a dull character without any personality. he’ll prolly do a decent job, but it prefer a diff guy. Reeves’s name is what’s gonna sell tickets.
I didnt like this trailer at all, unless of course they are making a different movie. From the footage shown it does not seem like the original very much. From what i remember of the original Klatu does not have powers that insane. Also it doesnt seem to have the same type of relevance to the time as the original did, i mean come on a giant green ball thing?
