Poster for Pelham 123
Posted by Patrick Sauriol on Tuesday, February 10, 2009
Now we're finally starting to see some promotion for MGM's upcoming remake of The Taking of Pelham 123. This morning it's JoBlo.com that has the world's first look at the film's poster featuring the mugs of Denzel Washington and John Travolta hovering over a NYC transit car. No surprises there.
The Taking of Pelham 123 is a remake of the 1974 thriller that starred Walter Mattheau and Robert Shaw in the Washington/Travolta roles. When armed men commandeer a subway car and demand ransom for the safe return of the passengers, the police all but assume that the criminals can't get away once they get paid. But the bad guys have an ace up their sleeve, and since that's a spoiler I won't go any further.
Directed by Tony Scott (Crimson Tide), the new Pelham is slated for release on June 12, 2009 and the trailer blasts into theaters this weekend in front of The International. See the poster over on JoBlo.
