This looks pretty interesting. Hugely expensive film to make, and from reports that I can find not based on any existing story or characters.
Although to be honest the premise looks extremeely familiar from something I read a while back (wish I had a bettter grasp of book title/ authors) closet thing I can put my finger on is the Mars series by Kim Stanley Robinson. (Red Mars was pure genius the other two books not so much, too much story line for my liking I guess)
If you have not read the books I will not discuss the reasons why that series seems familiar in this. I am not positive that is exactly the basis of this movie but it has a similar storyline that I could pick up from the trailer.
