IGN revealed a new old-school poster for Kim Jee-Woon‘s first English-language film, The Last Stand.
As Arnold Schwarzenegger‘s first top-billed film since leaving Sacramento, Lionsgate will be handing it out to attendees at this weekend's New York Comic Con.
The role of Sheriff Owens, originally set up for Liam Neeson, the studio instead gave to the former California governor. Charles Bronson kind of movies features Arnie as a disgraced cop currently holding a small-town Sheriff post, who has to prevent a powerful drug kingpin (Eduardo Noriega) from escaping across the US-Mexico border.
This straightforward action film hit theaters on January 18th, 2013 with a cast that also includes Zach Gilford, Forest Whitaker, Luis Guzman, Rodrigo Santoro, Johnny Knoxville, Jaimie Alexander, Peter Stormare, Harry Dean Stanton and Genesis Rodriguez.

Action icon Arnold Schwarzenegger makes his much-anticipated return to the big screen in Korean director Kim Jee-woon's hard-hitting US directorial debut, THE LAST STAND. After leaving his LAPD narcotics post following a bungled operation that left him wracked with remorse and regret, Sheriff Ray Owens (Schwarzenegger) moved out of Los Angeles and settled into a life fighting what little crime takes place in sleepy border town Sommerton Junction. But that peaceful existence is shattered when Gabriel Cortez (Eduardo Noriega), the most notorious, wanted drug kingpin in the western hemisphere, makes a deadly yet spectacular escape from an FBI prisoner convoy. With the help of a fierce band of lawless mercenaries led by the icy Burrell (Peter Stormare), Cortez begins racing towards the US-Mexico border at 250 mph in a specially-outfitted Corvette ZR1 with a hostage in tow.
