Focus Features sent me all the images and character descriptions for the movie 9. The characters are called Stitchpunks and here is the first one.

Voiced by one of the world’s most respected actors, Christopher Plummer, 1 is the Scientist’s first creation. As the elder, he is the self-declared leader of the group. He is clever and sly, but also domineering, quick-tempered, and threatened by the new arrival of 9, whose higher intellect leads him to question authority.

A new era in animated storytelling begins on 9.9.09. Visionary filmmakers Tim Burton (The Corpse Bride, Charlie and The Chocolate Factory) and Timur Bekmambetov (Wanted, Nightwatch) join forces to produce wunderkind director Shane Acker’s distinctively original and thrilling tale. 9 stars Elijah Wood, John C. Reilly, Jennifer Connelly, Martin Landau, Christopher Plummer and Crispin Glover and features the music of Danny Elfman.

This poster talks to me and draws my curiosity.  The background of the ruined city with the words “When Our World Ended Their Mission Began” is delightful in a way.  Did you notice the Screenwriter’s name is prominently on the poster? You don’t see that very often.
