Two New Pics from Andrew Niccol’s The Host
Nix June 14, 2012
Yes, I’m approaching this movie entirely as an “Andrew Niccol movie” and not as an “Stephenie Meyer movie”, even though the movie is based on her book “The Host”. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. Anyways, two new pics from the movie, including your first looks at Jake Abel from the film. Take a gander, gander takers.
THE HOST is a riveting story about the survival of love and the human spirit in a time of war. Our world has been invaded by an unseen enemy. Humans become hosts for these invaders, their minds taken over while their bodies remain intact. Most of humanity has succumbed. When Melanie (Saoirse Ronan), one of the few remaining “wild” humans, is captured, she is certain it is her end. Wanderer, the invading “soul” who has been given Melanie’s body, was warned about the challenges of living inside a human: the overwhelming emotions, the glut of senses, the too-vivid memories. But there was one difficulty Wanderer didn’t expect: the former tenant of her body refusing to relinquish possession of her mind. When outside forces make Wanderer and Melanie unwilling allies, they set off on a dangerous and uncertain search for the man they both love.
“The Host” stars Saoirse Ronan, Max Irons, Diane Kruger, Jake Abel, Chandler Canterbury, William Hurt, and lands on Earth March 29, 2013.
