The first trailer for the upcoming film Pixels has been released.
Starring onetime Donkey Kong defender Adam Sandler and co-produced by Sandler’s Happy Madison Pictures with Columbia Pictures and 1492 Pictures, the film features a host of larger-than-life classic arcade game characters and a human cast, grappling with the idea of Pac-Man being a bad guy.
The film was inspired by the viral 2010 short of the same name by French director Patrick Jean. The original high-concept two-and-a-half-minute short featured Pac-Man, Space Invaders, Donkey Kong, Arkanoids, Tetris tiles and Frogger running amok in New York City with little suggestion of a story.
