First Clip From ENDER'S GAME Released; "Welcome to Battle School"
"We will never forget what the enemy did, but we defeated them. And we will do so again," says Harrison Ford's 'Graff' in the first clip from Gavin Hood's (X-Men Origins: Wolverine) upcoming adaptation of the Orson Scott Card penned novel. Check it out!
After an alien race called the Formics attacks Earth, the International Fleet prepare for the next invasion by training the best young children to find the future leader to lead the International Military. Ender Wiggin (Asa Butterfield), a shy but strategically brilliant boy, is pulled out of his school to join International Fleet and attend the legendary Battle School. After easily mastering the increasingly difficult war games, distinguishing himself and winning respect among his peers, Ender is soon ordained by Colonel Graff (Harrison Ford) as the military's next great hope, resulting in his promotion to Command School. Once there, he's trained by Mazer Rackham (Ben Kingsley) himself to lead the military into a war that will determine the future of Earth and the human race.
