Ghost In The Shell: Scarlett Johansson Is Robotic In First Teasers
You could call her Ms. Robot, but we wouldn't recommend it.
Paramount released five teasers for the upcoming live-action adaptation of Ghost in the Shell during the season finale of Mr. Robot, each no longer than 15 seconds. Based on Masamune Shirow's classic manga series, the movie stars Scarlett Johansson as a one-of-a-kind human-cyborg hybrid named "The Major." She leads Section 9, an elite task force devoted to stopping cybercriminals and extremists, and she does it all with a mean bob haircut.
Each teaser is glitchy, vague, and a little creepy, and The Verge reports they "replicate familiar frames" of the original manga. Check them out above and below.
Directed by Rupert Sanders (Snow White and the Huntsman), Ghost in the Shell also stars Michael Pitt, Juliette Binoche, Takeshi Kitano, and Rila Fukushima. The movie arrives in theaters March 31, 2017.
