Universal's The Wolfman is set to arrive in theaters in just over two months (February 12, 2010), and the studio is ramping up its PR campaign. Their latest effort is a new featurette that ties the new film to the studio's storied cinematic classics of the '40s and '50s which inspired director Joe Johnston's remake.

In the featurette, the actors talk about the wolfman myth and lots of new scenes from the film are revealed. Check it out using the player below.

The Wolfman tells of Lawrence Talbot (Benicio Del Toro), an actor who returns to the home of his estranged father (Anthony Hopkins) after the death of his brother. Familiar awkwardness becomes the least of his problems when he is attacked and bitten by a wolf and quickly takes on hairy, toothy qualities whenever the moon rises.

The new film also stars Emily Blunt, Hugo Weaving and Art Malik.

02-02-10 Wolfman sees his shadow. Aztec calendar wrong.

Posted by Keika on December 10th, 9:45am

10 days before these woods are traversed by an incarnation of horrific evil, a colony of peaceful and loving ground-hogs rise from their hole to see if their shadows will be cast by moonlight. If no shadow is seen, then a burrowing frigid month of hibernation will linger ahead. But if the shadows fall, Cowabunga! They launch for Waikiki before the spawning box jellyfish invade the shoreline, ten days later. (Hey, ground-hogs are shrewd little critters.)

The Social Network - Teaser 2
On a fall night in 2003, Harvard undergrad and computer programming genius Mark Zuckerberg sits down at his computer and heatedly begins working on a new idea. In a fury of blogging and programming, what begins in his dorm room soon becomes a global social network and a revolution in communication. A mere six years and 500 million friends later, Mark Zuckerberg is the youngest billionaire in history... but for this entrepreneur, success leads to both personal and legal complications. From director David Fincher and screenwriter Aaron Sorkin comes The Social Network, a film that proves you don't get to 500 million friends without making a few enemies. The film is produced by Scott Rudin, Dana Brunetti, Michael De Luca, and Cean Chaffin and based on the book "The Accidental Billionaires" by Ben Mezrich.

Buried - Trailer 2
Paul Conroy is not ready to die. But when he wakes up 6 feet underground with no idea of who put him there or why, life for the truck driver and family man instantly becomes a hellish struggle for survival. Buried with only a cell phone and a lighter, his contact with the outside world and ability to piece together clues that could help him discover his location are maddeningly limited. Poor reception, a rapidly draining battery, and a dwindling oxygen supply become his worst enemies in a tightly confined race against time— fighting panic, despair and delirium, Paul has only 90 minutes to be rescued before his worst nightmare comes true.

It's Kind of a Funny Story - Trailer
In this New York City-set comedy-drama, 16-year-old Craig (Keir Gilchrist of “United States of Tara”), stressed out from the demands of being a teenager, checks himself into a mental health clinic. There he learns that the youth ward is closed - and finds himself stuck in the adult ward. One of the patients, Bobby (Zach Galifianakis of “The Hangover”), soon becomes both Craig’s mentor and protégé. Craig is also drawn to another 16-year-old, Noelle (Emma Roberts of “Valentine’s Day”). With a minimum five days’ stay imposed on him, Craig is sustained by friendships on both the inside and the outside as he learns more about life, love, and the pressures of growing up.
