On May 18th the battle for earth begins at sea!   Peter Berg’s Battleship, based on the classic naval board game by Hasbro, has done quite well overseas (grossing more than $100 million) and is headed to the U.S.

Pop songstress-turned-actress Rihanna is busy traveling the globe on a promo tour for Battleship!  Rihanna makes her motion-picture debut as Petty Officer Second Class Cora Raikes-weapons specialist on USS John Paul Jones.

The film’s synopsis reads:  ‘…an epic-scale action-adventure unfolds across the seas, in the skies and over land as our planet fights for survival against a superior force.’ 

The film also stars Taylor Kitsch (John Carter), Brooklyn Decker (What to Do When You’re Expecting), Alexander Skarsgard (True Blood) and Liam Neeson (Taken).  Enjoy the trailer below:  [youtube id=”JpoabtbEJOI” width=”600″ height=”350″]Are you excited yet?  In just 3 weeks Battleship will be in a theatre near you!  Click here to see Rihanna receive her ‘honorary’ ship-mate certification!
