Posters & International Trailer: GET SMART

By Matt Holmes / June 25, 2011

We've already seen a ton of Bond parodies. I mean Hell, it only took four years after the release of the first Bond movie DR. NO back in 1962 for the blatant Bond parody OUR MAN FLINT to be spawned and surprisingly it became a huge success for it's leading man James Coburn. Then, just one year later there was the original CASINO ROYALE with the bizarre but extremely watchable cast that included David Niven, Peter Sellers, Orson Welles, Woody Allen, Deborah Kerr and Bond's original desirable hottie Ursula Andress.

Famously in the 90's there was AUSTIN POWERS which would ignite two sequels and cement Mike Myers as a huge star, with the dual roles of both The International Man of Mystery and as the villain Dr. Evil. Then came JOHNNY ENGLISH, the hideous 21st century British attempt at parodying Bond (which by DIE ANOTHER DAY had almost become a parody of itself) with Rowan Atkinson as the title character and Natalie Imbruglia as his sidekick.

So comes GET SMART, which isn't entirely covering new ground. It's not officially a Bond parody as it's based on a very light-hearted and funny 60's t.v. show... but it's pretty obvious from the trailer that there are Bond undertones here. Thankfully it looks funnier than JOHNNY ENGLISH and with an awesome cast that includes leads Steve Carell and Anne Hathaway along with the supporting players Alan Arkin, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Terence Stamp... this one looks to be unmissable. Two new International posters as you have no doubt spotted above, and a brand new International trailer below. I like the look of this...

Though I would advise you to GET SMART and watch the HD version HERE.

GET SMART opens on June 20th and is directed by Peter Segal, he of 50 FIRST DATES and ANGER MANAGEMENT fame.
