M. Night Shyamalan’s AFTER EARTH Pre-Prod Pics

I know, I know, not many of you are very fond of M. Night Shyamalan anymore after his streak of low quality works (that’s a nice way to put it) in recent years but in case.. in case you’re curious about his new film AFTER EARTH starring Will Smith and Jaden Smith, Shyamalan was kind enough to tweeted a few pre-production photo via whosay.com just to keep you up to date
Above is a picture of illustrator named Dean and below is a collection of images that he’s compiled to give inspiration. You can check out the rest OVER THERE, previous info about the film, after this jump..

1000 A.E. a.k.a AFTER EARTH, starring Will Smith, Jaden Smith, Zoe Kravitz, Isabelle Fuhrman, Sophie Okonedo, directed by the guy who brought you that godawful movie version of The Last Airbender, M. Night Shyamalan...
Scripting job belonged to scribe Gary Whitta (The Book Of Eli), Shyamalan however rewrote it a bit as he saw fit. And then Oscar winning scribe Stephen Gaghan (Traffic, Syriana) was brought in to help polish this futuristic sci-fi project housed at Sony Pictures, produced by Overbrook

“Set 1,000 years into the future, a young boy navigates an abandoned and sometimes scary Earth to save himself and his estranged father after their ship crashes.”

So ya, earth is not what it used to be, the father (Will) is injured and it’s up to the son (Jaden) to be the hero but once again, earth is not what it used to be, it is now a strange and dangerous place.
If all goes well, Kravitz will play Will’s daughter and Okonedo will play Will’s wife. Fuhrmann plays Jaden’s character’s friend, Rayna.

Production starts this March in locations in Pennsylvania and Utah and the film will arrive June 2013
