Just this morning we teased you with a teaser of the teaser poster (funnily enough, we were also eating Maltesers at the time), and now we have the entire thing. This is more like it! I may not know much about the book on which this proposed franchise starter is based, but I know I am very interested in finding out more. The main plot focuses on Ender (Asa Butterfield), a young lad entered into an intense training regime in order to prepare for an alien invasion.
Below is an official synopsis, which goes into more detail and after that is the poster you came to see:
In the near future, a hostile alien race (called the Formics) have attacked Earth. If not for the legendary heroics of International Fleet Commander, Mazer Rackham (Ben Kingsley), all would have been lost. In preparation for the next attack, the highly esteemed Colonel Graff (Harrison Ford) and the International Military are training only the best young children to find the future Mazer. Ender Wiggin (Asa Butterfield), a shy, but strategically brilliant boy is pulled out of his school to join the elite.
Arriving at Battle School, Ender quickly and easily masters increasingly difficult war games, distinguishing himself and winning respect amongst his peers. Ender is soon ordained by Graff as the military’s next great hope, resulting in his promotion to Command School. Once there, he’s trained by Mazer Rackham, himself, to lead his fellow soldiers into an epic battle that will determine the future of Earth and save the human race.
ENDER’S GAME is released 25th October in the UK and 1st November in the US. It stars Asa Butterfield, Abigail Breslin, Harrison Ford, Ben Kingsley, Hailee Steinfeld, Viola Davis, and Nonso Anozie.
