Trailer For Gerard Butler’s ‘Game’ Leaked Online

From Sci Fi Scoop

No one seems to know what is happening with Gerard Butler’s new cerebral sci-fi actioner Game. Despite a cerebral story that boasts an excellent cast including Michael C. Hall (Dexter) and Milo Ventimiglia (Heroes), the film didn’t go so well in its 2008 test screenings. As a result it’s release date was delayed to the 4th September 2009 and nothing has been heard of it since. As a result of the silence, some people have speculated that the movie might not even see the light of day.

Now it seems we have our first Game news - the Italian trailer has been leaked online. Sure it’s not official, it’s in Italian, it’s of average quality and is supported poorly by a grating recording of Marilyn Manson’s “Sweet Dream’s”, but it’s the first glimpse into the movie we have. Perhaps more importantly, it offers hope to many Butler fans that the movie will in fact be released after all.

In Game Gerard Butler (of 300 fame) plays Kable, a death row inmate who has become the champion of an online game called ‘Slayers’. The story takes place in a future where mind-control technology has become the norm and the game ‘Slayers’ provides humans the ability to control other humans on a mass scale. To those that run the game ‘Slayers’, Kable is nothing more than a human bot - a simulation. But to those who resist oppression, he is the key to overthrowing a high-tech system of societal slavery.

At this stage (and as far as we know), the official release date for Game is 4th September 2009.

I like "the dancing" in the beginning of the video.

Well pooh, it's not there anymore...

I love it when shit blows up.
