Adam Sandler, Peter Dinklage in Pixels image

The first image has been released from upcoming movie Pixels.

Pixels stars Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Michelle Monaghan, Peter Dinklage, Josh Gad, and Brian Cox, and directed by Chris Columbus. The film will be released in the UK on May 27, 2015.

In Pixels, when intergalactic aliens misinterpret video-feeds of classic arcade games as a declaration of war against them, they attack the Earth, using the games as models for their various assaults. President Will Cooper (James) has to call on his childhood best friend, ā€™80s video game champion Sam Brenner (Sandler), now a home theater installer, to lead a team of old-school arcaders (Dinklage and Gad) to defeat the aliens and save the planet. Monaghan plays the team’s unique weapons specialist.

Sony Pictures has teamed up with a number of classic video game companies to use iconic characters such as PAC-MAN, Donkey Kong, CentipedeĀ®, Galaga, Frogger, Q*bert, and Space Invaders in the movie.
