Trailer Time: Contagion, directed by Steven Soderbergh


Good things come to those who wait. Rather than wasting everybody's time with the trailer from earlier today, stepped on and talked over by the bobble-headed hosts of Entertainment Tonight, we decided to wait for the inevitable official one, commentary free. And so here you are, the much anticipated trailer for Steven Soderbergh's virus outbreak film, Contagion...




It's a good thing I'm a slob who isn't freaked out by a bacteria or two, otherwise this trailer might freak me out. What most surprises me is the revealed death of a prominent character, although to be honest with the talent Soderbergh has at his disposal he can afford to off one or two of them.

The cast features Matt Damon, Marion Cotillard, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Winslet, Laurence Fishburne, Jude Law, Elliott Gould, Demitri Martin, Bryan Cranston, and John Hawkes.  If these guys can't stop a measly little virus, nobody can. 

Contagion opens in IMAX on September 9th!
