After years in the making, Luc Besson will finally unveil his dream project, VALERIAN AND THE CITY OF A THOUSAND PLANETS, to the world. Using breathtaking visual effects to bring the classic story to life, the movie promises to be an absolute extravaganza of colors, creatures and space action. The new trailer is here to showcase the scale and grandeur of the film, pushing the “you’ve never seen anything like this” angle harder than ever.
This movie will be a big gamble for Europa and STX Entertainment, who have sunk a ton of money into what appears to be an attempt at a sort of AVATAR/GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY hybrid. It sure does look spectacular in a visual sense, but the characters of Valerian (Dane DeHaan) and Laureline (Cara Delevingne) and their story will be the determining factor when it comes to the movie’s quality, and therefore lifespan. The colors are pretty, but they can’t pay all the bills. Okay, they'll pay most of them.
VALERIAN AND THE CITY OF A THOUSAND PLANETS arrives July 21 and also stars Clive Owen, Rihanna, Ethan Hawke and Rutger Hauer.
