The first teaser trailer has been released for Luc Besson‘s upcoming science fiction film Valerian, based on the hit comic book series by Pierre Christin. The film stars Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevingne as government operatives tasked with maintaining order throughout the universe. The film also stars Clive Owen, Rihanna, Ethan Hawke, John Goodman, Herbie Hancock, and Kris Wu.
It certainly looks like Besson is tapping back into his Fifth Element days with some impressive looking visuals, so hopefully Valerian will turn out to be a fun time when it hits theaters July 21st, 2017.
Rooted in the classic graphic novel series, Valerian and Laureline- visionary writer/director Luc Besson advances this iconic source material into a contemporary, unique and epic science fiction saga.
Valerian (Dane DeHaan) and Laureline (Cara Delevingne) are special operatives for the government of the human territories charged with maintaining order throughout the universe.
Under directive from their Commander (Clive Owen), Valerian and Laureline embark on a mission to the breathtaking intergalactic city of Alpha, an ever-expanding metropolis comprised of thousands of different species from all four corners of the universe. Alpha’s seventeen million inhabitants have converged over time- uniting their talents, technology and resources for the betterment of all. Unfortunately, not everyone on Alpha shares in these same objectives; in fact, unseen forces are at work, placing our race in great danger.
