Jason Sudeikis Hosts the 20th Annual "2011 MTV Movie Awards LIVE on Sunday, June 5 at 9pm ET/8pm CT

NEW YORK, NY (June 2, 2011) - MTV today announced that they will give viewers an exclusive sneak peek of the upcoming film, "Super 8" at the "2011 MTV Movie Awards." The highly anticipated summer film is written and directed by J.J. Abrams, with Steven Spielberg serving as a producer. Both will join "Super 8" stars Elle Fanning and Joel Courtney on-stage to present the never-before-seen footage. The film, set in the summer 1979, follows a group of friends in a small Ohio town who witness a catastrophic train crash while making a super 8 movie and soon suspect that it was not an accident. Shortly after, unusual disappearances and inexplicable events begin to take place in town, and the local Deputy tries to uncover the truth - something more terrifying than any of them could have imagined. Abrams and Bryan Burk are also producers. The film will be released by Paramount Pictures on June 10, 2011.

Hosted by Jason Sudeikis, the "2011 MTV Movie Awards" will broadcast LIVE from the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, CA on Sunday, June 5 at 9pm ET/8pm CT. J.J. Abrams, Steven Spielberg, Elle Fanning and Joel Courtney join previously announced presenters Mila Kunis, Chelsea Handler, Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, Ashton Kutcher, Nick Swardson, Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, Steve Carell, Emma Stone, Shia LaBeouf, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Josh Duhamel, Patrick Dempsey, Cameron Diaz, Jason Segel, Jesse Eisenberg, Aziz Ansari, Danny McBride, Nicki Minaj, Selena Gomez, Leighton Meester and Katie Cassidy. In addition, the Foo Fighters will deliver one of their trademark epic performances as they debut their new single "Walk" from their seventh studio album Wasting Light. Also set to rip the stage is Grammy Award-winning hip-hop superstar Lupe Fiasco who will treat viewers to two singles off his hit album LASERS by joining with R&B sensation Trey Songz for their first-ever televised performance together of "Out of My Head" to be followed by Lupe's platinum single "The Show Goes On."

The "2011 MTV Movie Awards" will turn fantasy into reality as the improbable materializes live before viewers' eyes. The magic and wonder of movies will go from the big screen to the "Movie Awards" stage as the fantastical world of whimsical landscapes and larger-than-life, reality-defying moments that audiences love are celebrated. Sure to be a treat for the over-active imagination, this year's ceremony will build upon the "Movie Awards" trademark individuality and status as Hollywood's most outrageous live event to provide movie fans with an experience worthy of their favorite blockbusters from the past year.
