Robert De Niro Looks Like a Blues Brother in First Still from Red Lights

You may have been excited when Buried director Rodrigo Cortes announced that his next film would star Robert De Niro, Elizabeth Olsen, Sigourney Weaver and Cillian Murphy, but judging from this first still of De Niro in Red Lights, expectations should be tempered. What is this exactly? An advertisement for some wannabe top-shelf vodka? A reboot of The Blues Brothers? Click through to be underwhelmed.

Red Lights -- about a psychologist (Weaver) and her assistant (Olsen) whose study of the paranormal leads them to a psychic (De Niro) -- should be out sometime next year.

    He's on the old Twin Peaks set?

    So why exactly should we have tempered expectations and be underwhelmed by this? Because he's wearing sunglasses? Because one still doesn't give the whole plot away like the odious previews that the information generation obviously expects? Because the author really had to stretch for a little early Friday 'net snark?
