Trailer for A Scanner Darkly

I just saw the trailer for this movie, It's unlike any movie ever seen or done, It's live action, But they completely animated right over it giving it this unique artistic style, Like a living comic book, It's based on a popular comic book and it stars Keanu Reaves, Check out the trailer here.

This is based on a graphic novel, Which is the reason why the film will look the way it does.

Wow. This movie reminds me of the style that the upcoming game Killer 7 is being made in.

Can't wait to see it!

I believe you are mistaken. It's a classic SF book written by Philip K. Dick.

As for the style, the fact that the director did Waking Life is the most likely reason for the visual presentation.
