This is the teaser poster for “Dorian Gray” that Ealing Studios is using to promote the film at the American Film Market (definitely not the final one). From ShockTillYouDrop.com:
One of the many genre offerings being previewed at the American Film Market is Dorian Gray, starring Ben Barnes and Colin Firth.
While this grim adaptation of the Oscar Wilde tale is far from finished, representative Ealing Studios is granting attendees a first look at a promo reel cut for the event. Also, it’s going out with some promo art which we’ve taken a quick snapshot of for you.
• Edit: Bloody-Disgusting.Com has posted the previous Teaser Poster in better quality and also a new one. Check them out!

Lauren said:Wow, that poster was a shocker! It kind of looks like one from the 1930s or something. It is still VERY COOL though! Love ya Ben! You look great! Who are those people next to him??

Liz said:The poster looks like a vampire film. ‘Tis real nice. :)
As for “Easy Virtue”, thanks for the information. I was actually wondering when it’d get released over here (France, that is). I can’t believe it won’t be before May / June though – wonder why it takes so long? I suppose it’s going to be dubbed for the other countries too yet they’re getting it earlier. Mind you, I just hope it’ll get released in English in that lovely indie cinema in town. I hate watching dubbed films. Anyways, that’ll be a nice way to relax before my MA oral exam, eh. ;)

November 6th, 2008
Harriette said:Haha Yeah! I bet he laughed. I prefer the second one with him on his own, I don’t really like the first one i find it sort of disturbing.. even though its supposed to be i guess.
November 6th, 2008
H said:Yeps the main poster has impact but no offense but on the poster of just Ben – the position or is it that they’ve messed around with the imagery to much – his body is either 2 long or the heads to small hmm?
November 6th, 2008
Harriette said:Yeah it looks a little strange, its probably to do with the colour and everything. These aren’t the original posters though,so maybe in the proper ones we’ll have a little bit of Colin Firth and Rebecca Hall.

Mandi said:Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! My fellow Americans!!! I’m sure that it will be released here in the states… I was just annoyed that we keep getting the movies AFTER everyone else… LOL Goodness!!! I am still annoyed that I’ve YET to see Bigga than Ben and now Easy Virtue is up in the air and it’s just annoying as hell.
Now what I heard was that Easy Virtue was being releases in the American Film Festival and NOT open to the public. BUT (theres a but..!) if the critiques like the movie, (remember it was a large hit in Toronto) it will most likely be released but we’ll have to wait for it. That’s just the way that these small films go. Especially films made across the great pond… Patience is a virtue.

MK said:Ireland*7 November 2008, USA* 9 November 2008 (American Film Market), Australia *19 March 2009, Finland *27 March 2009, France *1 April 2009 (got those dates from IMDB, don’t know if they are official, yet) anyway judging from the italian release date i will probably get to see the movie around the 1st quarter of 2009. so 2009 begins and ends with a dose of BEN! that’s cool! oh and i saw the add on the bottom of the site ;p
