More Details for Matt Damon's Character in New Elysium Trailer

Now we finally find out why Matt Damon's character is seen wearing that robotic frame thanks to the new trailer for Columbia Pictures' Elysium directed by District 9 director Neill Blomkamp.

The science-fiction thriller “Elysium” starring Matt Damon and Jodie Foster has launched its second trailer which can be viewed here .

In the year 2159, two classes of people exist: the very wealthy, who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth. Secretary Delacourt (Jodie Foster) will stop at nothing to preserve the luxurious lifestyle of the citizens of Elysium – but that doesn’t stop the people of Earth from trying to get in by any means they can. Max (Matt Damon) agrees to take on a life-threatening mission, one that could bring equality to these polarized worlds.

Written and directed by “District 9's” Neill Blomkamp, “Elysium” also stars Sharlto Copley, Alice Braga, Diego Luna, William Fichtner and Wagner Moura.

“Elysium” will be released in the Philippines on August 21, 2013 by Columbia Pictures, local office of Sony Pictures Releasing International. Visit www.columbiapictures.com.ph to see the latest trailers, get free downloads and play free movie games.
