A new teaser/TV spot for Paramount Pictures' Ghost in the Shell reveals the tagline, "They Didn't Save Your Life. They Stole It."

The tag is in reference to The Major and the cutting-edge experiment that placed her brain inside a 100% robotic body.  It seems Rupert Sanders' film will play with the notion that the experiment wasn't done to save her life (as that was the case in the anime and manga) and that Kusanagi was an unwilling participant.

The live-action adapatation starring Scarlett Johansson will hit theaters the following month, on March 31.2017.
