The Road trailer
http://www.apple.com/trailers/weinstein/theroad/
They are selling it as an action blockbuster, hopefully the actual movie will be faithful to the book.
Garret Dillahunt from Deadwood looks suitably creepy as the guy who tries to grab "The Boy". Also good to see Omar from the Wire getting work near the end of the trailer.

MK: So, Werner, are you making Bad Lieutenant?
WH: No, because I've done it.
MK: But it's not a remake, is it?
WH: No, it's not, although I cannot fully verify it because I have never seen Bad Lieutenant made by Abel Ferrara. I do not know who the man is, although he has made a lot of noise about this. Only the producer, Ed Pressman, who owns the rights to the title and was apparently planning to do some sort of franchise out of it, named it Bad Lieutenant. I added the subtitle, Port of Call New Orleans, because it takes place in New Orleans. And the leading actor in this is Nicolas Cage, with whom I had a wonderful working relationship. I took him where he has not been before.
MK: And he's been a lot of places. [audience laughs]
WH: I'm not speaking of physical places.
MK: I'm not either. [audience laughs]
