Teaser footage now online...

First Look At Babylon A.D.
Vin Diesel and Michelle Yeoh are no strangers to the future. From the darkness of Pitch Black to the burning glow of Sunshine, these two Sci-fi stalwarts seem to like their movies tinged with a distinct touch of what lies ahead. Take next year’s Babylon A.D. for example.
 
Based on Maurice Georges Dantec's novel Babylon Babies and directed by La Haine-helmer Mathieu Kassovitz, this apocalpytic thriller sees Diesel as Serbian mercenary Thoorop – a man sent to escort a rather special woman (Yeoh) across the Nothern Hemisphere. When Thoorop discovers his charge may be carrying a virus capable of destroying the entire human race, a normal day’s work turns into a planet saving quest. Happily, you can now see a selection of teaser footage - tanks, submarines, explosions, lots of snow, big coats, excellent -  by heading over to Diesel’s production company website. And you can do just that by clicking here.
