The first trailer for the Amy Adams-starring movie Arrival is out, showing the aftermath of an alien invasion.
After extraterrestrial spacecrafts land on earth, the government brings in expert linguist Louise Banks (played by Adams) to decipher what the aliens want and where they are from. As the world hangs on the brink of global warfare, Louise has to lead her team to find answers.
Directed by Denis Villeneuve, who helmed last year’s Sicario, Arrival hits theaters on November 11, and co-stars Jeremy Renner and Forest Whitaker.
