'The Rocker' Lands a New, Slightly Less Unsettling Poster

I'm kind of glad we have a new poster for The Rocker to show you. The first one was almost creepy. It had that familiar Olan Mills portrait studio look, and kid with Rainn Wilson's rather toady facial features. I suspect a little Photoshop, but it's still off-putting.

The new poster tells us a little more of the movie's story: Wilson plays a one-time hair metal band drummer who watched that spandex well dry up years and years ago. Now he sees his chance to hit it big again...by joining a local high school band.

Sure, it's Rainn Wilson in his underwear, and we're not exactly doing backflips over that, but it's still better than the creepy kid scenario. Let me ask you: Anybody else notice a Lars Ulrich resemblance? Maybe it's just me.

The Rocker arrives, fully dressed, in August.
