If you haven’t heard, massively popular manga and anime series Attack On Titan is getting a live-action movie. And this is the very first look at the adapted characters (including some new characters as well).

It’s horrifying and we can’t wait to see what they look like “IRL.” But until then, enjoy your look at live action Eren and friends.
