Een zeer lange press release voor de aankondiging van een teaser (dus
een korte trailer die slechts weinig onthuld), hier zijn enkele van de
belangrijkste zaken:

---------------------------------------------------------------

NBC Universal will present an unprecedented motion picture preview
"roadblock" as all nine of its networks simultaneously telecast the
world premiere of the first trailer for Universal Pictures' King Kong,
the dramatic adventure helmed by Oscar�-winning director Peter
Jackson, on Monday, June 27, from 8:59:30-9:02 PM ET.

As part of the ambitious, multi-pronged effort, the two-minute,
30-second teaser trailer will be broadcast at the same time on NBC,
SCI FI, USA Network, Bravo, MSNBC, CNBC, Telemundo, Mun2 and Universal
HD. The trailer will be offered in high-definition on NBC and
Universal HD. The estimated potential audience of the combined
networks would exceed 109 million viewers, surpassing the total
distribution of any previous promotional broadcast.

[...]

Also on Monday, June 27, in concert with the NBC Universal roadblock,
the King Kong teaser trailer will debut online, on multimedia-enabled
personal wireless communication devices and at several high profile
out-of-home locations.

Volkswagen, the exclusive automotive promotional partner of King Kong,
has been granted the exclusive online debut window for the teaser
trailer. Beginning at 8:44 PM ET (15 minutes prior to the NBC
Universal primetime roadblock), the teaser trailer may be viewed
exclusively on the Volkswagen website, encoded in Apple's QuickTime
technology, which offers the highest quality visual image available
online. This Volkswagen online exclusive will continue for 48 hours.

Also at this time, Universal Pictures' official movie site for King
Kong will go live at KingKongmovie.com. Included on the site will be
the official logo for the film, cast and filmmaker biographies and
downloadable photos. This online destination for the film will expand
over time and enable fans to immerse themselves in the rich history of
the Kong character in our culture, and to explore the world Peter
Jackson has created for his new film version of the classic adventure.

In addition, NBC Mobile (Sprint TV, Channel 1), on the Sprint PCS
network, will be featuring the King Kong trailer with additional
behind the scenes material on the film.
