Trivia

• The title refers to the end-date of the Mayan calendar, a Meso-American civilization whose dating system comes to an end in the year AD 2012. Though the calendar itself contains no such information, popular culture and certain religions prophesy an apocalyptic event at this date.
  
  
• The teaser trailer uses the exact same ambient music score from the trailer to The Shining (1980).

The release date for Greece is 9 July 2009

The Day The Earth Stood Still

A remake of the 1951 classic sci-fi film about an alien visitor and his giant robot counterpart who visit Earth.

The 2008 remake about an alien and his indestructible robot will star Keanu Reeves as Klaatu, Jennifer Connelly as Helen Benson, Jaden Smith as Jacob, and Kathy Bates. Gort has not been cast at this time and will most likely be created using SFX.

The remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still will supposedly remain true to the original movie. However, there is a chance the remake will more likely remain true to the short story upon which the 1951 movie is based. In either case, the alien weaponry seems to have been upgraded. In addition to a city going dark, and a very brief look at the new Gort, the film trailer shows a cloud of black smoke, capable of rapid movement and disintegrating matter on contact.
