‘The Tomorrow War’ Teaser: Chris Pratt Goes To War With Aliens 30 Years In The Future
Chris Pratthas already seen a variety of extra-terrestrial action as the star of Marvel’sGuardians of the Galaxyfranchise. But in Amazon’s upcoming sci-fi action movieThe Tomorrow War, he’s going to war with invading aliens in a war unfolding 30 years in the future, and the first teaser trailer has just arrived.
The Tomorrow War Trailer
The Tomorrow Warhas an outstanding premise, but this teaser barely grazes how cool this story can be. Here’s the official synopsis for the movie to offer a little more insight as to what’s going on here:
The teaser trailer only mentions fighting a war 30 years in the future, but it doesn’t explain how, which is one of the major selling points of this movie. On top of that, the footage leaves a lot to be desired, looking like some kind ofCall of Dutygame without the threat of the alien invaders in sight. Seriously, even if you go frame-by-frame in the final shot, you’ll see that there are no aliens to be seen.
I’m not sure if the design of the aliens is still being finalized or if the visual effects department simply hasn’t finished a single shot of them in the movie, but Amazon should have waited until they had something more substantial to show before teasing the movie like this. This is a bad teaser trailer and it does nothing to get me excited about the movie.
Also starring inThe Tomorrow Warwill beBetty Gilpin(GLOW),Sam Richardson(Veep),Mary Lyn Rajskub(24)Theo Von, Jasmine Matthews, Keith Powers, Edwin Hodge, Mike Mitchell, Seychelle Gabriel, Alan Strong, Alexis Louderand newcomerChibuikem Uche. Almost all of them will be playing various soldiers recruited from the past to fight this alien war in the future.
