Have you seen the new trailer for 20th Century Fox's remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still? If you haven't...scroll down to the end of this post for the official website and trailer link!

If you have managed to see it...MTV has posted an interesting interview with the film's director, Scott Derrickson, in which he is asked questions based on footage shown in the trailer. Here's an extract, in which he addresses the quick flash of Klaatu's (Keanu Reeves) trusty robot Gort that looks a lot like the 1951 original:

"It was intentional.

"I certainly took a lot of time to explore other possibilities. It wasn't just a foregone conclusion in my mind that we would be sticking to the original. I tried looking at a lot of different possibilities, worked on a lot of different ideas with artists and just always a nagging sense that there was something right about the way the original, that there was something about this alien entity choosing a human form or being in a human form that had value even by modern standards, not by 1950 standards. I also am such a fan of the original film. You have to also just have some respect for Gort. Gort is Gort. There's no question what we designed pays homage to the original."
