A red band trailer for This Is The End, a celebrity-filled apocalypse movie starring everyone from James Franco and Seth Rogen, to Emma Watson and Jason Segel, has arrived online.
Complete with an introduction featuring James Franco and Seth Rogen in a bunker anticipating the end of the world tomorrow, the red band trailer for This Is The End (formally The End of the World) features a crass look at the star-studded comedy directed by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg (writers of Superbad). Take a look at the trailer below, and be warned some of it is NSFW:
This Is The End focuses on James Franco, Jonah Hill, Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel, Danny McBride and Craig Robinson trying to survive the apocalypse, but features cameos from a whole host of their celebrity pals, including Paul Rudd, Emma Watson, Jason Segel, Michael Cera, Rihanna, Kevin Hart, David Krumholtz, Mindy Kaling and Aziz Ansari – all playing themselves. Sony Pictures will release the film on June 14, 2013 – that is if the world doesn’t end tomorrow.
The concept is definitely amusing, and with Rogen and Goldberg directing for the first time off a script they wrote together, the potential is definitely there. Hopefully the film can be more than just celebrities making fun of themselves, although we suppose that wouldn’t be all that bad either… Yes, that’s Emma Watson with an axe.
Also be sure to take a look at the poster below, which reminds us of that poster for The Hobbit for some reason.
The comedy This Is The End follows six friends trapped in a house after a series of strange and catastrophic events devastate Los Angeles. As the world unravels outside, dwindling supplies and cabin fever threaten to tear apart the friendships inside. Eventually, they are forced to leave the house, facing their fate and the true meaning of friendship and redemption.
