I'm surprised we haven't seen a trailer for Peter Jackson & Steven Spielberg's upcoming CG animated The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn yet, as it arrives in theaters exactly a year from now, but I'm sure they're waiting for the right time. Instead, we have three new very random stills from the movie which SlashFilm found on SpoilerTV. They are available in high res - so click on to delve into them further. Seen below (top down): Silk (Toby Jones) with the Thompson twins (Simon Pegg and Nick Frost), Tintin (Jamie Bell) pointing a gun at Barnaby (Joe Starr) and Captain Haddock (Andy Serkis) out in the desert.
As a recap, The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn was directed by Steven Spielberg, produced by Peter Jackson with a script co-written by Steven Moffat, Edgar Wright and Joe Cornish. The cast includes Jamie Bell as Tintin, Andy Serkis as Captain Haddock, Simon Pegg & Nick Frost as Thompson & Thompson, Daniel Craig as the villain Red Rackham, and Toby Jones as Silk. The animated movie, in the works at Weta Digital, will hit US theaters in glorious 3D starting on December 23rd, 2011. Back in early November, the first official set of photos from the film were revealed, including the iconic shot of Tintin. Looks great so far!

Many of the best movies have been lagged for ages (e.g., Doctor Zhivago), I don't mean it's gonna be necessarily the case here, though.

it looks pretty great. I just hate the fact that actors can completely disappear in effects. Is fine in the right hands (Speilberg/Jackson) but I fear in the wrong hands, (Lucas) well.....you know....

So how many actors may need real jobs after this technology takes off?

There will be work for real actors for a long time yet; probably forever.

I can't wait for Spielberg to start working on something serious.

I just hope it doesn't have that icky vibe you get with The Polar Express, Beowulf and A Christmas Carol. These characters seem to be siding on a slightly more stylised look so maybe it'll be okay.

Um, that's the exact same pictures that were featured on Empire back in November, but in high-res.

#10 At least you can't blame Robert Zemeckis if Tintin goes awry.
