Fahrenheit 451 is based on Ray Bradbury's classic novel. In a future where the media is an opiate, history is rewritten and "firemen" burn books, Jordan plays Guy Montag, a young fireman who struggles with his role as law enforcer and with his "mentor", played by Shannon. Premieres Spring 2018 on HBO.

In this particular version- General Zod is the bad guy, and the Black Panther guy loves books:
I'm reminded of Netflix's new version of Lost in Space, where Judy Robinson and Dr. Smith look a little different:
And let's not forget the new Doctor Who and the Master:
I refuse to watch anything with Michael Shannon in it.
HBO can suck it.
I am with you: Micheal Shannon is a hate America piece of filth. Told old people its time for the urn if they voted for Trump.
I was assigned to read Fahrenheit 451 back in junior high.
I’m usually not very interested in science fiction stories.
I kept falling asleep and never did finish it cover to cover.
At last resort, I just turned to the final chapters and prolouge to see what happened.
Billy Mummy was in Lost In Space, and did a few Twilight Zones. He was one of those very popular child actors who never found a niche as an adult actor. I think he’s still involved in various charity works.
Is that the part where Hillary wins the election ?
A Wrinkle in Time looks a little different now too:
Then there is the new look for Captain America in Infinity Wars- he wears black now, and has a handguard.
Captain Marvel is now a woman so does that mean Ms. Marvel is a male-to-female preop transexual???
I cant see his face without thinking of his horrible character in Boardwalk Empire, masturbating and bloodying himself with a whip.
A Wrinkle in Time was my favorite childhood book.
Throughout the 90s studios tried to ditch superhero costumes for black leather.
I will know that the Culture is changing for the better when Captain America gets his red-white-and blue costume back.
I never thought the premise of the book even made sense. I also never thought Michael B. Jordan could act to save his life.
I agree. Nothing with Michael Shannon.
Read/have the book, saw/own the DVD of the original movie and after watch this trailer, I shan’t be watching this excreble POS thing! That “actor” is worthless ( he can’t act his way of of a wet paper bag and hams it up something awful! ) and lousy script are extremely off putting !
The 1966 version has Julie Christie. Mmmmmmm.
Not watching any more unoriginal rehashes.
And no, changing the gender of characters is not brilliant twists. Its moronic and overdone and they only change male characters to female. Blatantly social justice sending a message.
I turn my back on it all.
