The Thing 2011 A Remake With Chicks....?

The Thing trailer has arrived...Billed as a “prequel” to what's come before the pic will hit theatres on October 14, 2011.

It's directed by Matthijs Van Heijningen from a script by Ronald D. Moore and Eric Heisserer and will explain how the alien was first discovered by a Norwegian research team in the Antarctic-as detailed in John Carpenter's 1982 horror classic itself a remake of 1951's The Thing from Another World .

Mary Elizabeth Winstead stars as a PhD candidate who joins the research team after it discovers a spaceship in the ice. When an alien organism escapes and goes on the rampage, she teams up with a blue-collar mercenary helicopter pilot (Joel Edgerton) to stop the creature.
