Starring Joseph Gordon Levitt and Bruce Willis, Looper is the latest movie from Brick director Rian Johnson, a science fiction thriller where a hit man is forced to hunt his future self. Much has been made of the choice to enhance Levitt's face with prosthetics to make him resemble Willis more, and a new poster gives us another look at this. It certainly looks a lot better than the set pictures we've seen before, which I found a bit laughable to be honest. The poster, and official synopsis below, are the first shot in the movie's marketing campaign leading to the premiere of the trailer on Thursday the 12th of April.
