Another trailer has surfaced for the Steven Spielberg/Peter Jackson Tintin movie and it’s a good one, giving hints of the tone the film is going for.
The trailer sets out the basic story, throws in a few beautiful shots of the set pieces and there’s some slapstick to chorlte to in between the action, which is pushed to the fore in this new look.
There’s also a nice moment with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost as Thompson and Thomson and seeing the rest of the characters there’s cause to breathe a cautious sigh of relief as the much feared Polar Express/Dead Eyes syndrome appears to have been worked out.
Based on three of Georges “Hergé” Remi’s original Tintin stories, The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn is directed by Steven Spielberg, and stars Jamie Bell, Daniel Craig, Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Tony Curran, Toby Jones, Mackenzie Crook, Cary Elwes and Gad Elmaleh.
Tintin (Bell) and his friends discover directions to a sunken ship commanded by Capt. Haddock’s ancestor and go off on a treasure hunt.
The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn will be released in the UK October 26th, almost two months before it hits US cinemas on December 23rd.
Here’s the trailer, which should be released soon in shiny HD.
