New 'Astro Boy' images land online

Some brand-new still images from David Bowers' upcoming big-screen adaptation of "Astro Boy" popped up online today, and you can check out some of them below.

While I'm not incredibly excited about this project, I sure admit these photos look beautiful. They display clean animation and strong colors, and that's something already. Check out some more pics at Sci Fi Wire here.

"Astro Boy" is an animated film based on Osamu Tezuka's comic series that follows the adventures of a young robot created by a scientist to replace his late son.

Freddie Highmore, Nicholas Cage, Donald Sutherland, Bill Nighy, Eugene Levy and Nathan Lane are part of the film's voice cast.
