Jonathan Mostow's comeback, The Surrogates, now has a trailer.

SURROGATES trailer in HD

I'm a big Jonathan Mostow fan. I loved Breakdown, rather appreciated U-571 and, yes I darn well enjoyed the low-key and grim Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (yes, it's better than the butchered theatrical cut of Terminator Salvation). So I'm certainly glad to see that he's back in the game after six long years. Along with this Bruce Willis action vehicle, he also is allegedly directing the Sub-Mariner adaptation for Marvel, plus he has his nose in that would-be Escape From New York remake (guess what, the original isn't very good) and a Swiss Family Robinson update.

And this looks like an uncommonly intriguing science-fiction thriller, with a premise that is just a little similar to Strange Days, and equally enticing (basically people have robot surrogates that live their lives for them). However, BIG WARNING, the last scene of the trailer may or may not contain a huge spoiler. Something happens that I would assume happens near the end of the film. Maybe I'm wrong, but just in case, you should view this trailer at your own discretion.
