New trailer and IMAX release for I Am Number Four

The Steven Spielberg and Michael Bay produced teen sci-fi I Am Number Four is set for an IMAX release when it hits screens in February 2011. The film stars Alex Pettyfer, best known for playing the lead in the 2006 adaptation of Anthony Horowitz’s teen spy novel Stormbreaker, who plays one of nine alien children who crash-landed on Earth after their home planet was destroyed by an evil species called the Mogadorians. All the aliens grow up to develop super powers (erm… should DC Comics be calling their lawyers right about now?) and are assigned a number. Number Four hides out in Ohio as a high-school student, who inevitably falls in love with a photographer played by Glee‘s Dianna Agron, only to discover that the Mogadorians have tracked him down and already killed Numbers One through Three.

Based on the novel by James Frey and Jobie Hughes, the announcement of the IMAX release comes handily accompanied by a second trailer which looks precisely as over-dramatic and cheesy as you’d expect a teen sci-fi to be.
