From the post:

According to Paramount Progress, Paramount's exhibitor relations website, the new "Cloverfield" trailer is shipping with Beowulf. However, it is not attached. Sweeney Todd is the attached trailer, "Cloverfield" is being shipped as a seperate trailer enclosed in the Beowulf cans.

There is no title for the trailer, just "JJ Abrams Film" Trailer #2, showing a runtime of 2:11, tagged NYR (not yet rated) and a release date of 1-18-07, which appears to be a typo on their end.

Paramount requests that "Cloverfield" be placed on all prints of Beowulf, though it is at the discretion of theatres whether or not to place it. I'd assume most theater chains will place it.

[EDIT]
JJ Abrams Trailer #2, along with Sweeney Todd, apparantly will be in the digital DTS format, encoded on the DTS discs that ship with Beowulf. Which leads me to believe all theatre chains will be running the new trailer. But check your local cinema to be sure, theatre management should be able to tell you

See the below cut & paste from Paramount Progress (Screens to follow when available!)

-----------------------------------------------

Paramount Pictures is requesting the following placement for
November 16 and 17. Please see the attached for further details:

SWEENEY TODD - Trailer #1 (2:28 12/21/07 R) - Attached.
Beowulf
JJ ABRAMS FILM - Trailer #2 (2:11 1/18/07 NYR) - Enclosed.
Beowulf
SPIDERWICK CHRONICLES - Trailer #1 (2:02 2/15/07 PG) - ONLY WITH IMAX PRINTS!
Beowulf*

* Circuit Specific Trailer Placement.

All of the above is the original IMDB post. The thread continues on with a discussion of the legitimacy of the info.

Sweeney Todd is an old gothic horror tale. He was known as the Demon Barber of Fleet Street (London). He cut the throats of customers and made them into meat pies.
