First Look at Gerard Butler in Lionsgate’s ‘Citizen Game’ [/color][/b]





Lionsgate has released the first photo from the film that used to be called Game starring Gerard Butler, but is apparently now titled Citizen Game.

The picture is directed by Crank duo Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor and stars Gerard Butler as Kabel in a futuristic film in which Kabel participates in Slayers, an ultra-violent multi-player online game in which millions worldwide tune in online to watch him and hundreds of other convicts battle.

As for the new title, I have no idea if this is supposed to be some sort of play off Citizen Kane or if it is to imply the citizens fuel this violent game or what, but it just seems silly.

However you look at it, Citizen Game is set to hit theaters on September 4 and you can get a larger look at the above still right here.





Thats why the tooked out the Trailer

Here's what I found at IMDB:

Lionsgate has just announced that the upcoming Gerard Butler action film "Game" has been renamed to "Citizen Game." The studio also confirmed the September 4th release date. Some of you may have noticed that an Italian trailer for the film recently leaked online, but quickly disappeared. Lionsgate tells us that an American trailer should be released soon. Plot: In the not too distant future, Kabel (Butler), a death row inmate, has unwittingly become a pop culture hero. Every week, millions worldwide tune in online to watch him and hundreds of other convicts battle in Slayers, an ultra-violent multi-player online game invented by technological genius Ken Castle (Michael C. Hall). To the wealthy young gamer who controls his every move, Kable is just a sim (simulation) character. To the resistance group that opposes Castle.s games as high-tech slavery, he is a critical element in their battle to take down the inventor.

Yay! American Trailer coming soon.
