The first trailer for Catherine Hardwicke’s Red Riding Hood has been released.

Set in a village that’s under attack from a werewolf, this looks a bit Twilight: 1750AD - not surprising considering the supernatural elements, themes of forbidden love and Hardwicke's slick direction.

Starri⭕ng Amanda Seyfried as the girl with the red hood, with what promises to be a great support from Gary Oldman ꦐas a famous werewolf hunter.

At worst, Red Riding Hood will give Twi-hards something to watch while awaiting Breaking Dawn .

At best, it'll show what Hardwicke could have achieved if she'd have been allowed t🌊🀅o continue the Twilight Saga.

We doub💯t that this is franchise making stuff, but with Gary Oldman and Billy Burk🧜e in one movie, it's got our money.

Red Riding Hood is due for release in early 2011.
