Rogue Pictures has just sent over our first look at Doomsday, director Neil Marshall's follow-up to the hit horror The Descent.

In Doomsday, a lethal virus spreads throughout a major country and kills hundreds of thousands. To contain the newly identified Reaper, the authorities brutally quarantine the country as it succumbs to fear and chaos. The literal walling-off works for three decades – until Reaper violently resurfaces in a major city. An elite group of specialists, including Eden Sinclair, is urgently dispatched into the still-quarantined country to retrieve a cure by any means necessary. Shut off from the rest of the world, the unit must battle through a landscape that has become a waking nightmare.

The film stars Rhona Mitra as Eden along with Bob Hoskins, Malcolm McDowell, Alexander Siddig and Adrian Lester. The film is expected to hit theaters in 2008 and will be part of the Comic Con 2007 festivities.
