Here’s a trailer for City of Ember, a fantasy film aimed at kids that I’d never heard of, but when I paused our TV and told my wife and daughter I wanted to see this trailer they jumped up and got all excited.

It’s based on a book series and is being produced by kid-friendly studio Walden Media. The movie stars Tim Robbins and Bill Murray and opens this fall. I’ll let the trailer tell you what the movie is about.

Check out the trailer, courtesy of IGN, below.

If nothing else it looks really cool, don’t you think?

City of Ember opens on October 10th, 2008
