What is real? What is recall? This afternoon, Sony premiered the first trailer for Total Recall following a week filled with build-up from the teaser at the beginning of the week, the motion poster and the poster.
The trailer premiered during the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat basketball game earlier today and was then released on Apple immediately after. I have embed the trailer directly below and you can click here to watch it in HD.
The film hits theaters on August 3 and you can check out the poster and a few images from the film right here.
Total Recall is a remake of the 1990 film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and aims to bring a new adaptation of the short story “We Can Remember It For You Wholesale” by Philip K. Dick. The story centers on Rekall, the company that can turn your dreams into real memories, and a factory worker named Douglas Quaid (Colin Farrell) decides to take a perfect vacation from his frustrating life, opting for a life as a super-spy. But the procedure goes horribly wrong, and Quaid finds himself a hunted man, on the run from the police when he has to team with a rebel fighter (Jessica Biel) to find the head of the underground resistance (Bill Nighy) and stop the bad guys. Also part of the cast are Bryan Cranston, Kate Beckinsale, Bokeem Woodbine, Ethan Hawke and John Cho.
