UPDATE: The trailer will be posted online at 12:01 AM PST (thats 3:00 AM EST).
ComingSoon.net posted a new image. This image shows what I would say is the entrance into District 9. It shows some MNU workers guarding the entrance. The image also included a code with it, and you can see all of that below:
To save you some time, the code reads: NEW TRAILER ON APPLE.COM/TRAILER MAY 1. The cypher used to break this code can be found here.
That brings me into this discussion. It has been 100% confirmed the trailer WILL be attached to Wolverine (as I’ve heard this from multiple people). Also, this obviously says that there will be a trailer (probably the same one that goes before Wolverine) on Apple.com tomorrow.

UPDATE 4/27: The District 9 trailer WILL be before Wolverine, as been confirmed by JoBlo.comandFirstShowing.net. First Showing also reports the trailer will be online Thursday! Can’t wait! Follow us on Twitter for live updates.
According to JoBlo.com (via Twitter) the District 9 trailer will be (or AT LEAST is scheduled to be) before X-Men Origins: Wolverine. FirstShowing.net also hinted to me the trailer would be before Wolverine saying “I know a lot about District 9, including when the trailer will hit, and it’s not this week, I can assure you that. “. Of corse, Wolverine comes out next week.
Obviously this isn’t 100% confirmed (just look what happened with Crank), but it sure looks like at this time the trailer will be placed before X-Men. I doubt Sony would pull the trailer a second time. Expect a the trailer to be posted online sometime that Friday (if it is in fact before Wolverine).
The first official image of District 9 has appeard. Its a picture of Sharlto Copley’s character ‘Wikus‘ who is an Multi-National United agent who is infected by alien biotechnology. Wikus is on the run, trying to enter District 9, which is a set-aside peice of land for aliens. Not much else is known about the movie.
This film is being kept quiet and not much is known about it at this point. A trailer, as I reported yesterday and today, was supposed to be attached to Crank: High Voltage but Sony pulled the trailer and aired the trailer for Armored insteaad.
The District 9 trailer is expected to be put in front of either Angels and Demons (my best guess, as I stated earlier), Star Trek, or Terminator. Expect the viral to pick up the day the trailer is aired, whether it appear on the internet or in front of a movie first.
Hopefuly Sony will realize people following the viral since August of last year are getting tired of waiting.
*Research and Image from /Film,thanks to Ian from the forumfor the heads up.
UPDATE: As far as I know, the trailer must have been pulled. It seems Sony originally planned on releasing it in front of Crank, but something must have changed (trailer not ready, etc.). So right now, as far as I know, there is NO trailer in front of Crank.
I’ve been told by JoBlo.com on Twitter that there was a District 9 trailer before Crank, but I’ve heard from multiple other sources there wasn’t. JoBlo showed me this proof (which is real).
So now I’m lost? Have you seen the trailer? Email me! Twitter me! CONTACT ME! Do something!
UPDATE: Alex from FirstShowing udated his twitter saying that he heard the District 9 trailer wouldn’t be before Crank. Thanks to David from the forum.
JoBlo.com updated their Twitter account saying the trailer for District 9 will be coming out before Crank: High Voltage. That movie is Rated R and comes out Friday. I hope this is true, but then again I didn’t want to see Crank.
A source from our forum says that they heard the trailer will be released online within 48 hours of this post (April 15th).
