"Mother's expecting again. Brother is killing again. All I want...is for us to be...together. It's not every day we get to meet...a new member of the family..."

From the looks of the trailer, the long haired guy is the Point Man (Taking Fettel's words literally) and I'm sure the glowing guy is Fettel himself (Back from the dead after the Reborn DLC, seeing as how Extraction Point never happened), and if I'm not mistaken, they seem to be a lot less hostile towards each other. Probably because they both recognize their new Baby Sister as such a huge threat.

The other thing I noticed: It's not developed by Monolith, and thus is non-canon.

I hope those actors are just there for the trailer as I hate real people actors in games.

Wasn't Monolith purchased by Warner Brothers and is now WB games?

Can't wait to show this to my buddy, actually on second thought no, he'll just parrot the spoken words over and over and over till I go insane.

It won't be. This isn't the first live-action thing they've done for FEAR.

Yes and no. They were bought out by WB Games in 2004, but they're still named Monolith.

F.E.A.R. 3 Press release

Alma returns in F.E.A.R. 3 but this time her sons Point Man and Paxton Fettel introduce divergent co-op, giving players distinctly different abilities affecting their own play as well as the experience of their co-op partner. Gamers participate in single player or co-op modes as Point Man, a genetically enhanced super soldier originally introduced in F.E.A.R., or they can play cooperatively as his conniving brother Paxton Fettel, whose incredible telekinetic power has given him life beyond the grave.

So, in short, you can play as Paxton Fettel in co-op.

Hell. Yes.
