Although it's less than exciting, inside you'll find the first ever image from Dimension Films' The Road, which stars Viggo Mortensen, Charlize Theron, Guy Pearce, Kodi Smit-McPhee and Robert Duvall. Arriving in theaters November 26, the story centers on a man who embarks on a nightmarish road trip after a nuclear explosion in an attempt to transport his son to safety while fending off cannibals.

I was just reading this on the way home from work today. I'm curious to see how this translates onto the screen. It's mostly the son and father together, not much contact with other people. But I'm in the middle so I'll see what happens. But the look of the pic fits the feel of the book.

Even though this pic shows nothing I can already tell that they got this adaptation dead on

Hopefully it's not like War of the Worlds with the camera aimed at Tom Cruise the whole time...hopefully they show what's really happening around them

At times, the book was difficult to read, but for all the right reasons. I can't remember ever seeing a performance by Viggo Mortesen that I didn't like. So many actors more or less play themselves, but with Mortensen, there's no routine or shtick. I'm anxious to see if they'll stick with the very personal perspective instead of the "apocalypse in general" point of view used so often in such films.

I just listened to the book on cd...roadtrip....and it was awsome. can't wait to see the movie and hear the score....I'm a huge fan of Nick Cave and loved "The Proposition".
