Paramount has followup up the first full-length trailer for J.J. Abrams and producer Steven Spielberg’s Super 8 with a new theatrical poster that literally turns the movie on its side.
The poster’s simplicity almost masks what may be a Super 8 theme that Paramount has latched onto in their marketing plan for the film. In addition to the skyline being turned 90 degrees in the poster, the trailer reveal via Twitter included an option to rotate the actual trailer in 90 degree increments in a full circle. There’s no way this topsy turvy similarity between the poster and trailer venue is a coincidence.
Super 8’s trip back to 1979 will be lead by its young cast featuring Kyle Chandler, Elle Fanning, and Gabriel Basso. Also co-starring are Ron Eldard and Noah Emmerich. Look for Super 8 in theaters starting June 10 and catch the full Super 8 trailer if you missed it.
