Yes, we’ve been greatly anticipating Richard Kelly’s The Box - an adaptation of a story by I Am Legend author Richard Matheson, previously made into an episode of The Twilight Zone - in these parts and out anticipation only grows as the first stills make their way out.  USA Today jsut ran an article about the film, including several stills and the good lads at Bloody Disgusting have got ‘em all.

Based on the short story by Richard Matheson, “The Box” stars Cameron Diaz as Norma Lewis and James Marsden as Arthur Lewis, a suburban couple with a young child who receive a simple wooden box as a gift, which bears fatal and irrevocable consequences.  A mysterious stranger, played by Frank Langella, delivers the message that the box promises to bestow upon its owner $1 million with the press of a button.  But, pressing this button will simultaneously cause the death of another human being somewhere in the world, someone they don’t know.  With just 24 hours to have the box in their possession, Norma and Arthur find themselves in the crosshairs of a startling moral dilemma and must face the true nature of their humanity.

    So this is period...I didn’t know that. It looks a bit Brady to me, I hope it doesn’t come off as kitsch. Oh, and I’ve always hated the self-servicing “director portrait” and Kelly’s in this batch is particularly cheesy.
