This summer has brought an onslaught of comic-book movies, but the tide has turned against them. From Thor to X-Men: First Class to The Green Lantern, none of these super-expensive movies have managed to crack $200 Million at the box office, the number Superman Returns made (and that was considered a failure).

They’ve definitely cut out the haunting, subtle feel that the first trailer had and went for a much more in your face action trailer. I’m guessing this one is aimed at all the teens out their they’re hoping to rope in.
Check out the trailer and some new pictures below…

May become a wolf
When the wolfsbane blooms
And the autumn moon is bright.
Apparently, it’s an Old Gypsy poem that quite obviously goes with the film. Watch the trailer and check out three new pictures from the film below…
