"What would you do if you had to hunt down and kill your future self?" And here we go again, ready for another week of trailer teases? Sony is the next to follow suit after Prometheus in offering up small slices of teaser teases via Apple for the next three days leading up to the big premiere of Rian Johnson's Looper official trailer. This featurette has star Joseph Gordon-Levitt chatting with Rian Johnson about the film and his character, and gives you just a very small glimpse at some of the footage we'll be seeing "in 3 days" in the actual trailer. Bruce Willis also stars in Looper, but stay tuned for more as there is plenty to come.

Watch the first tease for the first trailer for Rian Johnson's sci-fi Looper, in high def from Apple:

In the futuristic action thriller Looper, time travel will be invented – but it will be illegal and only available on the black market. When the mob wants to get rid of someone, they will send their target 30 years into the past, where a "looper" – a hired gun, like Joe – is waiting to mop up. Joe is getting rich and life is good... until the day they decide to "close the loop", sending back Joe's future self for assassination.

Looper is the third film from Rian Johnson following his breakout hit Brick and The Brothers Bloom after that. Looper focuses on a mobster named Joe from the future who sends his targets back in time, but one day discovers himself as the target, causing him to go on the run. The movie also stars Emily Blunt, Jeff Daniels, Paul Dano and more and hits theaters everywhere this year on September 28th, 2012. Excited?
