The Mortal Engines trailer was released recently to drum up excitement for the film’s release in December of this year. Mortal Engines has an intriguing plot and interesting cast. The film is action-oriented, judging by the trailer, but it appears that we are going to get significant elements of adventure and fantasy as well. This isn’t surprising, given that it is being produced by many of the same names as The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. The film stars Hera Hilmar as Hester Shaw, a young woman who is attempting to stop a giant, robotic city from destroying everything in its path. Complicated by this subplot, she appears to battle Hugo Weaving as Thaddeus Valentine for the fate of many lives. There is significant buzz around this film, and it should be a real thrill ride.
