Until now, we've only been introduced to French-based teaser clips for Vin Diesel's upcoming sci-fi action film Babylon A.D. Not anymore. IGN has premiered a new trailer, which you can watch down below. The film, which is being created by a French production and director Mathieu Kassovitz, stars Vin Diesel, Gérard Depardieu, Michelle Yeoh, Charlotte Rampling, Mark Strong, Radek Bruna, Melanie Thierry and Lambert Wilson. Kassovitz led the production, based on a screenplay by Eric Besnard.

Plot Summary: A veteran-turned-mercenary (Vin Diesel) agrees to escort a woman from Russia to Germany, not realizing that she's the host for an organism that a cult wants to harvest into a genetically-modified Messiah. Based on the novel by Maurice G. Dantec.

Babylon A.D will hit theaters Aug. 29, 2008.

Looks great, im not a huge Vin fan but this looks promising. Hey what is that piece of music playing in the trailer? I hear it all the time and want to get a copy of the original. Anyone know what it is called or who composed it or what movie it is from?

AbsoluteDesignz • Jun 10, 2008, 07:16pm •

Wow...I am indeed impressed, I will be watching this...

umm I don't know the exact name of the piece of music but I know if you look up "Requiem for a Dream theme music" or something chances are you will find it.

WOW....that looks dope....I am psyched to see Vin Diesel back into some serious action. I think he is a good actor and is underrated.... It's about time we get to see a trailer....AquaDSLguy, if you want that version of the song, it is called "Requiem For A Tower", you can download it from Soulseek or something like that. It was originally made for the trailer for "The Two Towers", so it can be hard to find....Paul Oakenfold also does does a kind of techno version of it called Zoo York.

I got my verison of this song from Lime Wire. The version I have is Requiem for a Dream Remix, by Clint Mansell.

Enough with the Requiem Theme already Jeeze. PLAYED OUT!!!!!!!!!! Anyway, speaking of played out, this movie looks like a giant rip-off of too many movies to name.

YES! That looks friggin amazing! VIIIIIIIIIN!

That did look pretty damn good and every movie is a "rip-off" of some other movie. Even the best best movies ever made were rip-off of some other work. Its all about the execution, so get over it. I am tired of hearing the Requiem though. It has been used in a lot of movies. Its just really catchy and dramatic. That last scene with the missle exploding all around her was really awesome.

I would not mind a low budget Riddick movie. I think that there are enough fans for it. It just needs to be reasonable.

Damn my no-video work situation!!
