'Pixels': Pac-Man and Space Invaders attack

Sony Pictures has revealed four posters for "Pixels." Directed by Chris Columbus, the comedy feature brings classic 2D video game characters like Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Space Invaders and Centipede into the 3D world.

Last August, "Pixels" amused the internet with a series of photos from the set, which showed Peter Dinklage ("Game of Thrones") sporting an impressive mullet and joined by other cast members including Ashley Benson and Josh Gad.

Directed by Chris Columbus, "Pixels" centers on a team of video games experts hired by the government. Their mission: to combat an alien invasion that takes the form of characters from famous 1980s titles such as Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Space Invaders and Centipede.

As seen in the new posters, giant 3D versions of the 2D graphics launch attacks on cities around the world, including San Francisco, London, Tokyo and Paris.

Michelle Monaghan and Adam Sandler are also among the stars of this offbeat comedy, which is due in theaters on August 5, 2015.
