New Poster For The Day the Earth Stood Still By Kellvin Chavez on November 14, 2008 The folks over at 20th Century Fox have released a new international poster for "The Day the Earth Stood Still" starring Keanu Reeves and Jennifer Connelly. The film is due out December 12th 2008. Check out the poster below. In THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL, a contemporary reinvention of the 1951 science fiction classic, renowned scientist Dr. Helen Benson (Jennifer Connelly) finds herself face to face with an alien called Klaatu (Keanu Reeves), who travels across the universe to warn of an impending global crisis.   When forces beyond Helen’s control treat the extraterrestrial as a hostile and deny his request to address the world’s leaders, she and her estranged stepson Jacob (Jaden Smith) quickly discover the deadly ramifications of Klaatu’s claim that he is "a friend to the Earth."   Now Helen must find a way to convince the entity who was sent to destroy us that mankind is worth saving – but it may be too late.
