Crazy New Trailer for Alfonso Cuaron’s GRAVITY

One of my favorite scenes in a film is the single-take driving scene in Alfonso Cuaron‘s Children of Men and it looks like he’s injecting some of that in his upcoming film Gravity, which stars Sandra Bullock and George Clooney.  The new trailer released yesterday, features an extremely tense (and impressive) two-minute scene that sees things go wildly wrong for a crew of Astronauts.

I was already interested in checking this out, but this new video has me very excited to see this when it hits theaters October 4th after screening at Venice and Tiff.  Hit the jump for the trailer and synopsis.

GRAVITY, directed by Oscar® nominee Alfonso Cuaron, stars Oscar® winners Sandra Bullock and George Clooney in a heart-pounding thriller that pulls you into the infinite and unforgiving realm of deep space. Bullock plays Dr. Ryan Stone, a brilliant medical engineer on her first shuttle mission, with veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky (Clooney). But on a seemingly routine spacewalk, disaster strikes. The shuttle is destroyed, leaving Stone and Kowalsky completely alone—tethered to nothing but each other and spiraling out into the blackness. The deafening silence tells them they have lost any link to Earth…and any chance for rescue. As fear turns to panic, every gulp of air eats away at what little oxygen is left. But the only way home may be to go further out into the terrifying expanse of space.
