‘I Am Number Four’ trailer: Is James Frey’s book-turned-film the next ‘Twilight’ or ‘Harry Potter’?
Dreamworks / In ‘I Am Number Four,’ Alex Pettyfer plays an alien who falls for ‘Glee’ star Dianna Agron.
With the “Harry Potter” franchise ending next summer and “Twilight” wrapping up a year later, it’s quite likely the wizard and vampire fads are on their way out. If so, a new sci-fi fantasy trend will have to take the reins.
Can we interest you in aliens, perhaps?
That’s the hook for “I Am Number Four,” the D.J. Caruso-directed film whose explosive second trailer was just released earlier this week.
Based on the novel co-written by “A Million Little Pieces” author James Frey (under the pen name Pittacus Lore), “Number Four” tells the story of a group of teen aliens who are hunted on Earth, but who can only be killed in a numerical sequence.
