While there are a lot of movies arriving later this year, one of the ones I'm most excited to see is director Zack Snyder's Legend Of The Guardians: The Owls Of Ga’Hoole. Based on the Guardians of Ga’Hoole books by Kathryn Lasky, everything I've seen from the film leads me to believe this is going to be a special movie and something that's going to surprise audiences.  If you haven't seen the awesome trailer, you should start there.  Based on the trailer and getting to see five sequences from the film at a recent WB press event, Legend of the Guardians looks like Lord of the Rings with owls.  This is a good thing.  Anyway, Warner Bros. in the UK have released a new quad poster and you can check it out after the jump.  It's like a previous poster only wider.  Legend of the Guardians gets released September 24 and in the UK on October 22.

For more Legends of the Guardians coverage, here's an interview I did with Snyder and his wife and producing partner Debbie Snyder. And here are eight character posters.

Acclaimed filmmaker Zack Snyder makes his animation debut with the fantasy family adventure LEGEND OF THE GUARDIANS: THE OWLS OF GA’HOOLE based on the beloved Guardians of Ga’Hoole books by Kathryn Lasky.  The film follows Soren, a young owl enthralled by his father’s epic stories of the Guardians of Ga’ Hoole, a mythic band of winged warriors who had fought a great battle to save all of owlkind from the evil Pure Ones.

While Soren dreams of someday joining his heroes, his older brother, Kludd, scoffs at the notion, and yearns to hunt, fly and steal his father’s favor from his younger sibling. But Kludd’s jealousy has terrible consequences—causing both owlets to fall from their treetop home and right into the talons of the Pure Ones. Now it is up to Soren to make a daring escape with the help of other brave young owls.  Together they soar across the sea and through the mist to find the Great Tree, home of the legendary Guardians—Soren’s only hope of defeating the Pure Ones and saving the owl kingdoms.

The film features the voices of Emily Barclay, Abbie Cornish, Emilie de Ravin, Ryan Kwanten, Miriam Margolyes, Helen Mirren, Sam Neill, Geoffrey Rush, Jim Sturgess, Hugo Weaving and David Wenham.
