Dimension Films has released the first trailer for co-director Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller's sequel Sin City: A Dame to Kill For. The film stars Josh Brolin as the physically-altered Dwight (played by Clive Owen in the first film), who is hunted down by the only woman he ever loved, Ava Lord (Eva Green), and then watches his life go straight to hell. While I'm not crazy about the music they chose for this first cut, the character transformations are pretty damn cool. Returning characters have a whole new look, which makes sense since it's been almost a decade since the original film. Newcomers to the franchise have been beat up, cut up, or dolled up to the point that they're hardly recognizable. A solid start.
Hit the jump to watch the trailer. The film also stars Mickey Rourke, Jessica Alba, Bruce Willis, Rosario Dawson, Jaime King, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Dennis Haysbert, Christopher Meloni, Jeremy Piven, Ray Liotta, Juno Temple, Stacy Keach, and Julia Garner. Sin City: A Dame to Kill For opens on August 22nd.

Here’s the synopsis for Sin City: A Dame to Kill For:
SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR weaves together two of Miller’s classic stories with new tales in which the town’s most hard boiled citizens cross paths with some of its more repulsive inhabitants.
