The official first trailer from Neill Blomkamp’s second high-profile sci-fi flick, after District 9; Elysium gave us a good look at the world and story created by the gifted sci-fi specific director. Enthusiasts were given more than one reason to be confident in this film’s success from the storyline itself , to the fact that the director reteams with the star from Distrcit 9, Sharlto Copley who this time round sheds the star mantle handing the weight and task over to a more than qualified, and ripped looking, Matt Damon.

Plot Summary:” Elysium takes place in 2154, where the super-rich live in luxury aboard the eponymous space station. There, cancer can be cured and crime is but a memory, with Jodie Foster’s sniffy leader overseeing the apparent utopia.For Matt Damon’s Max, life is much tougher. He survives on the ruined, war-ridden Earth where his job is literally killing him. To solve his medical ills, and to help others, he’ll have to break into Elysium – which is no easy task at the best of times, and particularly not with Copley’s lethal black ops security man on his trail…” EntertainmentOnline

Seems like the marketing engines have started warming up, and courtesy of  Empire Online we have a couple of pretty neat stills from the film:
