Watch: THE HOST Exclusive Trailer

Here’s the full theatrical trailer for The Host, the sci-fi thriller based on Stephenie Meyer‘s best-selling adult novel about an evil force inhabiting humans everywhere. Countdown to The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 has already started, but the next work from Meyer is wasting no time coming to the silver screen. Slated to be directed by Gattaca director Andrew Niccol, the film stars Saoirse Ronan, Max Irons, and Jake Abel. Ronan recently told MTV News:

It’s great to just see it all put together and see how it looks and how certain scenes turned out.There are some nice moments in there. I loved working with everyone on it but I really loved working with William Hurt just because he was a great leader really for all of us. He raised questions that some of us might not have if he wasn’t there so it was lovely to see the scenes that we did together.

The future-set film hits theaters on March 29th, 2013. No doubt, the release of the new poster and trailer, coincide very well with the conclusion of Meyer’s first venture into the film, with Breaking Dawn Part 2 arriving on Friday. Check out the full-length trailer below.
