Walt Disney Pictures has released a new international movie trailer for Jon Turteltaub's The Sorcerer's Apprentice. The trailer is basically a variation on the trailer released late last year in the states, but includes a bit more dialogue, action and a better look at Alfred Molina as the film's villain Maxim. Shockingly, I've been hearing nothing but good things about this film from my insiders who are in the know.

So if you're done watching that awesome Scott Pilgrim trailer again (really, we know you're excited but it's quickly becoming a problem), head on after the jump. As always, please leave your thoughts in the comments below.

Balthazar Blake (NICOLAS CAGE) is a master sorcerer in modern-day Manhattan trying to defend the city from his arch-nemesis, Maxim Horvath (ALFRED MOLINA). Balthazar can't do it alone, so he recruits Dave Stutler (JAY BARUCHEL), a seemingly average guy who demonstrates hidden potential, as his reluctant protégé. The sorcerer gives his unwilling accomplice a crash course in the art and science of magic, and together, these unlikely partners work to stop the forces of darkness. It'll take all the courage Dave can muster to survive his training, save the city and get the girl as he becomes THE SORCERER'S APPRENTICE. . The screenplay is by Matt Lopez and Doug Miro & Carlo Bernard from a screen story by Matt Lopez and Larry Konner & Mark Rosenthal.

Notes:

The motion picture reunites Nicolas Cage, Jerry Bruckheimer and Jon Turteltaub, respectively the star, producer and director of the blockbusters "National Treasure" and "National Treasure: Book of Secrets."

"The Sorcerer's Apprentice" marks Nicolas Cage's seventh collaboration with Jerry Bruckheimer, following "The Rock," "Con Air," "Gone in 60 Seconds," "National Treasure," "National Treasure: Book of Secrets" and "G-Force").

Dave (Jay Baruchel) is just an average college student, or so it appears, until the sorcerer Balthazar Blake (Nicolas Cage) recruits him as his reluctant protégé and gives him a crash course in the art and science of magic. As he prepares for a battle against the forces of darkness in modern-day Manhattan, Dave finds it is going to take all of the courage he can muster to survive his training, save the city and get the girl as he becomes THE SORCERER'S APPRENTICE.
