To coincide with our set visit coverage today, Warner Bros. has provided us with a couple of new images from the long-awaited Veronica Mars movie to share with readers.  Written and directed by series creator Rob Thomas, the film finds Kristen Bell’s titular character returning to her hometown of Neptune when her ex-boyfriend, Logan (Jason Dohring), is accused of murder, only to find that the case isn't as straightforward as it first appears.  These new images show Bell doing some solid sleuthing and also give us a look at Dohring reprising his role as Logan.  If you missed our set visit coverage, be sure to check out our full report and interview with Thomas.

Take a look at the new images after the jump.  Veronica Mars will premiere at the SXSW Film Festival and opens in theaters on March 14th.

Here's the official synopsis for Veronica Mars:

In the film, Veronica Mars has put Neptune and her amateur sleuthing days behind her on the eve of graduating law school. While interviewing at high-end law firms, Veronica gets a call from her ex-boyfriend Logan who has been accused of murder. Veronica heads back to Neptune just to help Logan find an attorney, but when things don’t seem right with how Logan’s case is perceived and handled, Veronica finds herself being pulled back into a life she thought she had left behind.
