David Hewlett in new trailer for SPLICE


David Hewlett can be seen in a new trailer for the movie SPLICE, due out for release June 4th. The movie, directed by Vincenzo Natali, stars Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley and, of course, David Hewlett!

The VARIETY review (at http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117941994.html?categoryid=1237&cs=1) said "Easily the sexiest genetics researchers on the planet, lovers/lab partners Clive (Brody) and Elsa (Polley) have had great success recombining DNA from different animals to synthesize potentially life-saving proteins, and are eager to take the next step and "incorporate human DNA into the hypertemplate." But they hit a wall with their corporate masters (David Hewlett, Simona Maicanescu), who rule against further experimentation in favor of a less controversial, more immediately profitable next step." That's the only mention of David (and the rest of review has some spoilers). Oh, his character's name is Barlow.

He's around the 30 second mark. Here are some screencaps.

Mmm, David in a suit!

I haven't kept up-to-date on Splice, but does this mean we'll be seeing an actual release date for it then?

Thanks for finding this1

According to the New York Post, the release date is June 4. I remember this date from some articles after the movie was shown at Sundance.

And you can find David at the 20 second mark. Blink and you miss him, but he does get in a sentence.

I hope it comes to my neck of the woods. We usually just get blockbuster/Jennifer Anniston type stuff.

you'd think

you'd think with his previous character of Rodney in SGA (best show on the planet) he'd be the one trying to get approval for that sort of thing instead of stonewalling it. Huh. weird. ;]
