Meet the Kids in First Official ‘Super 8’ Image

Published

on

As part of their summer preview, Paramount Pictures has provided Bloody Disgusting with the first official still from Super 8, a Bad Robot/Amblin Entertainment Production that teams writer/director J.J. Abrams with the legendary Steven Spielberg.

In the summer of 1979, a group of friends in a small Ohio town witness a catastrophic train crash while making a super 8 movie and soon suspect that it was not an accident. Shortly after, unusual disappearances and inexplicable events begin to take place in town, and the local Deputy tries to uncover the truth – something more terrifying than any of them could have imagined.

The film, which arrives in theaters June 10, stars Kyle Chandler, Elle Fanning, Joel Courtney, Gabriel Basso, Noah Emmerich, Ron Eldard, Riley Griffiths, Ryan Lee and Zach Mills.

Below you’ll find the first ever image featuring (from left to right) Elle Fanning as “Alice Dainard” and Joel Courtney as “Joe”. The poor kid in the background doesn’t get a credit. I’d also like to note that there’s “something” in the lens. Can anyone make out what it is?
