The Elysium Trailer Has Evil Jodie Foster, Robo-Matt Damon, And a Side Order of Class Conflict [VIDEO]

I’ve been waiting patiently for the first trailer for Elysium, director Neill Blomkamp‘s follow-up to District 9. Now it’s here, and it does not disappoint. Jodie Foster looks quite villainous as the director of Elysium, a paradisal space station where the privileged live, leaving the rest of humanity to the squalor and chaos of Earth. Matt Damon, meanwhile, is the hero who has to break into Elysium. And District 9‘s Sharlto Copley pops up, too!

It comes out August 9th. Can’t wait.
