PAUL Poster Stars Pegg, Frost & Rogen

Empire Online introduces us to Seth Rogen’s little alien dude in this new poster for Universal Pictures’ PAUL. They had me with the line “from the producers of HOT FUZZ.” That’s it brother – I’m in. HOT FUZZ was the funniest film of 2007! Frost and Pegg are gods among men. Here’s another look at the first trailer for the film.

Synopsis:

Simon Pegg and Nick Frost (Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead) reunite for the comedy adventure Paul as two sci-fi geeks whose pilgrimage takes them to America’s UFO heartland. While there, they accidentally meet an alien who brings them on an insane road trip that alters their universe forever.

For the past 60 years, an alien named Paul (voiced by Seth Rogen) has been hanging out at a top-secret military base. For reasons unknown, the space-traveling smart ass decides to escape the compound and hop on the first vehicle out of town – a rented RV containing Earthlings Graeme Willy (Pegg) and Clive Collings (Frost).

Chased by federal agents and the fanatical father of a young woman that they accidentally kidnap, Graeme and Clive hatch a fumbling escape plan to return Paul to his mother ship. And as two nerds struggle to help, one little green man might just take his fellow outcasts from misfits to intergalactic heroes.

Paul is directed by Superbad’s Greg Mottola, from a story by Pegg & Frost. Joining the comedy’s cast are Jason Bateman, Kristen Wiig, Bill Hader, Blythe Danner, Joe Lo Truglio, John Carroll Lynch, David Koechner and Sigourney Weaver.

PAUL will be landing in theaters in the U.K. on February 14, 2011 and in the U.S. on March 18, 2011. Visit the film’s official site here and on Facebook here.
