Splice Preview With Clips And BFCA Exclusive Junket Interviews

Splice is hitting June 4th, and it's had a lot of people talking for quite a while already. From Sundance and beyond, not all the talk has been positive, but there has certainly been talk.

At the film's recent junket, the BFCA got some extra interview time to use as exclusive content, and I have it to share with you.

Frankly, I'm not sure what to make of this one yet, and I've heard both positive and negative from people I tend to trust. It seems as though it's that sort of film, though I tend to like most things with Adrien Brody. I haven't had a chance to catch it yet, but at least you can make a more informed decision.

Check out some images, clips, and that interview footage below.

Superstar genetic engineers Clive (Adrien Brody) and Elsa (Sarah Polley) specialize in splicing DNA from different animals to create incredible new hybrids. Now they want to use human DNA in a hybrid that could revolutionize science and medicine. But when the pharmaceutical company that funds their research forbids it, Clive and Elsa secretly take their boldest experimentation underground--risking their careers by pushing the boundaries of science to serve their own curiosity and ambition.

The result is Dren, an amazing, strangely beautiful creature of uncommon intelligence and an array of unexpected physical developments.

At first, Dren exceeds their wildest dreams. But as she grows and learns at an accelerated rate, her existence threatens to become their worst nightmare.

"Splice" stars Academy Award® winner Adrien Brody ("The Pianist," "Hollywoodland," "King Kong"); Sarah Polley ("Dawn of the Dead," "The Secret Life of Words"), also a Best Screenplay Oscar® nominee for "Away From Her"; and newcomer Delphine Chaneac ("The Pink Panther") in the role of the creature Dren.
