The first images form Neill Blomkamp’s ELYSIUM have surfaced online, thanks to Slashfilm. The pictures show a shaven-headed Matt Damon, who also appears to be wearing some unidentified futuristic technology. The DISTRICT 9 director’s latest movie is set 100 years from now, with Damon playing an ex-con and Jodie Foster as the head of state of an alien world. ELYSIUM remains shrouded in mystery, and there’s a great many questions yet to be answered. But if Blomkamp’s previous work is anything to judge it by, science fiction fans should be in for a treat.
ELYSIUM also stars Sharlto Copley, Diego Luna, Sonia Braga, and William Fitchner. It is set for release 2013.
