First Poster for Neill Blomkamp’s ELYSIUM Starring Matt Damon & Jodie Foster; Trailer Debuts Tomorrow
The first poster for Neill Blomkamp’s upcoming sci-fi thriller ELYSIUM starring Matt Damon & Jodie Foster has been released. The much-anticipated trailer will debut online tomorrow at 7 pm EST. Set in the year 2159, where the very wealthy live on a man-made space station while the rest of the population resides on a ruined Earth, a man (Damon) takes on a mission that could bring equality to the polarized worlds.
Jodie Foster, Sharlto Copley, Wagner Moura, and William Fichtner also star. Elysium opens August 9th.
In the year 2159 two classes of people exist: the very wealthy who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth. Secretary Rhodes (Jodie Foster), a hard line government official will stop at nothing to enforce anti-immigration laws and preserve the luxurious lifestyle of the citizens of Elysium. That doesn’t stop the people of Earth from trying to get in, by any means they can. When unlucky Max (Matt Damon) is backed into a corner, he agrees to take on a daunting mission that if successful will not only save his life, but could bring equality to these polarized worlds.
