I’m so excited about Transcendence! We got our first peek at a few pictures last week and one of those (pictured above) looks like Johnny Depp’s character, Will Caster, is giving a presentation of sorts. This teaser trailer sounds like the perfect audio to accompany that picture. Don’t hold your breath for actual footage but the final image is the most startling of the teaser. Depp is looking pretty rough. Here’s the synopsis followed by the teaser. Check it out.

Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) is the foremost researcher in the field of Artificial Intelligence, working to create a sentient machine that combines the collective intelligence of everything ever known with the full range of human emotions. His highly controversial experiments have made him famous, but they have also made him the prime target of anti-technology extremists who will do whatever it takes to stop him.

Teaser Trailer: Transcendence

Transcendence starring Johnny Depp, Morgan Freeman, Cillian Murphy, and Rebecca Hall is slated to hit theaters April 18th, 2014.
