The first image from Roman Polanski's new film Carnage (based off the play God of Carnage) has gone online.  The film stars Jodie Foster, John C. Reilly, Kate Winslet, and Christopher Waltz as two sets of parents who come together to talk about a schoolyard fight between their kids.  If that cast combined with this director doesn't make you want to see this movie, you're nuts.  And while Polanski is known for the deadly seriousness of his movies, Foster says the movie has some humor:

"It all happens in real-time, so it’s about an hour and 45 minutes of negotiation between two sets of parents and how it all falls apart," she said. "Kind of like Who’s Afraid Of Virginia Woolf?, but a little funnier. There’s a lot of wit."

So I guess it will be like Revolutionary Road but intentionally funny.  Hit the jump to check out the first image from the film as well as a photo of Polanski on the set.  Carnage is currently in post-production and may hit theaters before the end of the year.
