Here's the first teaser trailer for Paul, the new nerd sci-fi comedy from the British duo Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.
Directed by Gregg Mottola (The Daytrippers, Superbad), the movie is about two comic book geeks whose Comic-Con-centered road trip changes course when they meet the titular escaped alien (voiced by Seth Rogen) in the desert outside Area 51.
Jason Bateman co-stars as a G-Man chasing them down, while the cute Kristen Wiig is the American girl who falls in with our two British lads. Jane Lynch, Sigourney Weaver, Bill Hader, Blythe Danner and Jeffrey Tambor also stars.
Synopsis:
Simon Pegg and Nick Frost reunite for the comedy adventure Paul as two sci-fi geeks whose pilgrimage takes them to America's UFO heartland. While there, they accidentally meet an alien who brings them on an insane road trip that alters their universe forever. For the past 60 years, an alien named Paul (voiced by Seth Rogen) has been hanging out at a top-secret military base. For reasons unknown, the space-travelling smart ass decides to escape the compound and hop on the first vehicle out of town—a rented RV containing Earthlings Graeme Willy (Pegg) and Clive Collings (Frost). Chased by federal agents and the fanatical father of a young woman that they accidentally kidnap, Graeme and Clive hatch a fumbling escape plan to return Paul to his mother ship. And as two nerds struggle to help, one little green man might just take his fellow outcasts from misfits to intergalactic heroes.
Paul is due for release 18th February 2011. Will you see the movie? Check out the trailer below and sound off!

Heck yeah, I am going to see this movie. I am counting down until it releases. Loved Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz quickly became one of my favorite movies of all-time. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are unbeatable.
