The grainy, rusty clouds of the first Cowboys & Aliens poster weren’t quite dark enough for the international crowd it seems, so for the worldwide poster they’ve dropped Daniel Craig to silhouette and blued up his world. The international poster comes by way of Empire Online, and it really puts the focus on that piece of alien tech strapped to Mr. Cowboy’s wrist. Kind of surprising that the American poster is the one featuring the ass shot…
I will say the posters, as simple as they have been so far, seem to match the tone of the movie so far as we could gather it from the trailer– which is that of a gritty, straightforward western made unique by the presence of glowing alien stuff. Doesn’t look like there’s much bait-and-switch marketing going on here…
