"City Of Ember" Movie Trailer With Bill Murray

By Jason on May 16, 2008

The other day Mike mentioned a movie called City Of Ember that hasn’t gotten a lot of attention. He gave us some info on it as well as some pics and a really cool poster. The movie doesn’t come out until October so it’s sort of being overwhelmed by the big summer movies, but I saw the newly released trailer today and I think this little film just might surprise us. It actually looks really good.


As Mike mentioned, the official plot description says:

For generations, the people of the City of Ember have flourished in an amazing world of glittering lights – underground. But Ember’s once powerful generator is failing . . . and the great lamps that illuminate the city are starting to flicker. Now, two teenagers in a race against time, must search Ember for clues that will unlock the ancient mystery of the city’s existence, and help the citizens escape before the lights go out forever.

City Of Ember stars Bill Murray, Saoirse Ronan (Atonement), Tim Robbins, Martin Landau, Toby Jones and Harry Treadaway.

It opens in theaters on October 10, 2008.

    The City Of Ember trailer looks really good. I love how the scenery in the trailer looks very dark and ominous like the books. Although it does have similarities to other movies that have come out I think City Of Ember has a combination of factors that will put it over the top. Such as an amazing cast from Tim Robbins to Bill Murray, Tom Hanks and Walden Media produced the film and Caroline Thompson adapted the screenplay!
    I cannot wait for October 10th!

    My name is Blair and I am an official ambassador for City of Ember and I have access to first-look pics of the movie not seen in the trailer, which I would be more than happy to share with you. I would love to have your help spreading the word about City of Ember and get the buzz going!

    I hope I’m not over stepping any bounds by posting on your blog.
    Hope to speak with you soon.

    Best,

    Blair, yeah, we’d love some shots from the movie for sure. I’ve just gotten hold of the book and plan on reading it ASAP.
