Omelete gives us another official look at the Jonah Hex character from the upcoming film based on the long-running comic-book series from DC. It’s a bit tease-ey in that we don’t get to see all of his (disfigured) face.

Josh Brolin as Jonah Hex

What do you think? While Josh Brolin looks the part, I still would’ve liked to have seen Tom Jane get this role as he wanted to do it and was genuinely passionate about the project. The only thing really drawing me to this flick is the score, from Mastodon.

Jonah Hex hits theaters June 18, 2010.

In case you’re unfamiliar with the comic/film, here’s the official synopsis:

Jonah Hex (Josh Brolin) is a scarred drifter and bounty hunter of last resort, a tough and stoic gunslinger who can track down anyone…and anything. Having survived death, Jonah’s violent history is steeped in myth and legend, and has left him with one foot in the natural world and one on the “other side.” His only human connection is with Leila (Megan Fox), whose life in a brothel has left her with scars of her own. But Jonah’s past is about to catch up with him when the U.S. military makes him an offer he can’t refuse: in exchange for his freedom from the warrants on his head, he must track down and stop the dangerous terrorist Quentin Turnbull (John Malkovich). But Turnbull, who is gathering an army and preparing to unleash Hell, is also Jonah’s oldest enemy and will stop at nothing until Jonah is dead. Based on the legendary graphic novel, “Jonah Hex” is an epic adventure thriller about one man’s personal quest for redemption against the vast canvas of the battle between good and evil.

Any Hex fans out there?
