the boxCameron Diaz and Cyclops from X-Men (James Marsden) are in a movie together. The film is set in 1976 and revolves around an unhappily married couple (Diaz and Marsden) who receive a box from a mysterious stranger (Frank Langella), who tells them that pushing a button on the box will award them with a large monetary sum, and simultaneously, someone the couple does not know, will die. While the plot doesn’t sound that great, it looks quite interesting. Watch the trailer below!

The Box is directed by Richard Kelly (Donnie Darko) and will be released in October.

    Despite having Cameron Diaz in it, I’m rooting for this flick. Looks like it could be cool, if it can avoid slipping into a character-less CGI fest. Can’t wait to see the other side of Langella’s face either – but let’s hope they keep it hidden till you pay your ticket price.

    This is a story written by Richard Matheson called “Button Button” and featured in the 1980s Twilight Zone series. Exactly the same story.
