Featuring two of our most tired-looking, modelesque waifs to take on a sickly-green pallor as a comic book villain, Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets sees Dane DeHaan (The Amazing Spider-Man) and Cara Delevingne (Suicide Squad) as government operatives maintaining order in a futuristic universe. In this latest trailer for the film, Clive Owen tells us the pair’s mission: they have to stop whatever “unknown force” is threatening the titular City of a Thousand Planets, and they have less than ten hours to do it. This beautiful-yet-hauntingly-ghoulish duo had better get on it.
Valerian is director Luc Besson’s long-awaited return to interplanetary sci-fi, and from the looks of this new trailer, fans of his cult classic The Fifth Element will be pleased at the familiar sights they’ll see: More flying-car-filled cityscapes! More bulky, Jim Henson-style aliens! Another model-turned-actress co-lead! And now, Rihanna stepping in for the diva stage performance. The film hits theaters July 21.
