SpoilerTV has posted up some new promotional photos from Peter Jackson’s The Lovely Bones.

This film definitely has my interest and I’m sure it could be a contender at the Academy Awards.

According to IMDB, the film’s focus is on a young girl played by Saoirse Ronan (Atonement) who has been murdered and watches over her family – as well as her killer – from heaven. She must weigh her desire for vengeance against her desire for her family to heal.

Take a good look at the new promo photos below.

The Lovely Bones is based on the best selling book by Alice Sebold and also stars Mark Wahlberg, Rachel Weisz, and Susan Sarandon. You can catch it in theaters on January 15, 2010.
