Character Posters & Concept Art for Shane Acker’s ‘9’

Shane Acker’s feature film debut, ‘9,’ looks amazing, inventive and incredibly dark.   It doesn’t hurt that Tim Burton and Timur Bekmambetov have attached their names as producers, either.   Of course, with the nine, main characters in the film and with the growing popularity of character posters, you just knew this film was going to follow suit.

Today, we bring you those posters.   There are eight of them, since 3 and 4 are evidently identical twins.

Check ’em all out here:

These are all very cool designs, and probably one of the best series of character posters out there.   Cannot wait to see 7 and 8 in some hand-to-hand action.   Apparently, if you are one of the lucky ones attending Comic-Con this year, you’ll be able to get your hands on a collection of special edition lobby cards with each of these images on them.

Also included with these sweet posters are these nice pieces of concept art that show in details some of the film’s steampunk designs.

Check these out:

‘9’ is set for release on September 9th (9/9/09).
