Open Road Films has released a new featurette from Andrew Niccol's The Host, the big screen adaptation of Stephenie Meyer's novel starring Saoirse Ronan, Max Irons, Jake Abel, Diane Kruger, William Hurt and Frances Fisher. This one focuses on Irons' character, Jared Howe. If you missed yesterday's video on Ronan's Melanie Stryder, you can check it out by clicking here.

Opening in theaters on March 29, The Host is a riveting story about the survival of love and the human spirit in a time of war. Our world has been invaded by an unseen enemy. Humans become hosts for these invaders, their minds taken over while their bodies remain intact. Most of humanity has succumbed.
