If you’re headed out to the movies this weekend, prepare yourself to see a fresh batch of new trailers from some of the year’s most anticipated films — or at least, those that aren’t already out. Word on the street is that a new trailer for Neill Blomkamp’s sci-fi flick District 9 will be running in front of the Sacha Baron Cohen comedy BrĂ¼no. We also got word today from the folks at Yahoo Movies that they will have the new District 9 trailer online on Wednesday, July 8th. Based on early reports — including a positive reaction from Mike Sampson at JoBlo — this trailer is going to build upon early buzz and help launch the Peter Jackson produced actioner into the eye of the American mainstream.

But as we wait for the trailer to appear online and in theaters later this week, Yahoo did hook us up with a brand new poster — which is just as cool, if not cooler than the first teaser poster. That can be seen below.

District 9 hits theaters on August 14, 2009.

  • Although it doesn't have the "Cloverfield" quality surrounding it, it still looks like a great piece of sci-fi and will probably be a better film than "Cloverfield".

    This looks like a rip-off of 2019 After the Fall of New York.
  • After seeing Blomkamp's short films over on YouTube I think this has a real solid chance of being a cool flick. The more of the little "alert spots" I see, the more hyped I am to check it out.

    If you haven't seen Neil Blomkamp's short films "Yellow" "Tempbot" or "Halo" (which he Jackson also had a hand in) you should give them a look.
