For all you Punisher apologists and Deep Blue Sea lovers out there, today is a good day. Because Tom/Thomas Jane is back back back, in the teaser trailer for Mutant Chronicles, online now here.
Set in a dystopic future where corporations battle for the world's depleted resources and mercenaries do their bidding, the film sees a horde of deadly, well-nigh unstoppable mutants released from under the Earth, forcing the evacuation of the planet to begin. Mercenary Jane, along with a few brave souls and a mysterious monk, has to save the world.
Good set-up, but you'll be lucky if you manage to gather much of that from this none-more-dark trailer. Still, if you keep eyes peeled you should catch a few glimpses of the bone blades that grow from the mutants' arms, which is kind of a nifty twist on the whole concept.
The film also stars Ron Perlman, Devon Aoki, Benno Furmann, Sean Pertwee and John Malkovich, with Simon Hunter directing. There's no confirmed release date yet, but let's hope we get a chance to see more soon.
