Plenty of great news today from Richard Kelly on Southland Tales, the most important being that November 9th is the day you need to mark down in your calendars. The release date has been officially announced by Sony, and you won't want to miss it!

The second bit of exciting news is that Richard Kelly himself will be at Comic-Con this week very briefly signing new teaser posters for Southland Tales! The new posters haven't been revealed, but I'm sure we'll post photos of them once we catch a glimpse at Comic-Con. For details on when and where you can see him and get a poster as well as a new photo from Southland Tales, read on!

At Comic-Con you can catch Richard and grab a poster on Friday, July 27th from 11AM to 1PM at Table AA 12 at the Sails Pavillion.

Kelly also says to expect a trailer mid-August, so stay tuned - we'll be the first to bring you the trailer!

Set in the near future in Los Angeles, July 2008, the film is described as, "an epic story that takes place over the course of three days, culminating in a massive 4th of July celebration." It features, "Boxer Santaros (Dwayne Johnson), an action star stricken with amnesia, Krysta Now (Sarah Michelle Gellar), an adult film star developing her own reality television project, and Roland Taverner (Seann William Scott), a Hermosa Beach police officer who holds the key to a vast conspiracy." "The time and additional visual effects that were added have allowed me to achieve my original vision for 'Southland Tales," Kelly said in a statement. "The fans' response has been overwhelming and I anticipate that moviegoers will respond enthusiastically."

Lastly, check out this exclusive new photo compliments of DwayneJohnsonFever.net from Southland Tales. Rather revealing and rather interesting at the same time - enjoy!
