The first trailer for M Night Shyamalan‘s sci-fi epic After Earth has been released in which we get our first look at the new film starring Will Smith and his son Jaden Smith, the latter of which appears to be getting more screen time than maybe most of us expected.
After Earth is set one thousand years after cataclysmic events forced humanity’s escape from Earth and Nova Prime has become mankind’s new home. General Cypher Raige (Will Smith) returns from an extended tour of duty to his estranged family, ready to be a father to his 13-year-old son, Kitai (Jaden Smith). When an asteroid storm damages Cypher and Kitai’s craft, they crash-land on a now unfamiliar and dangerous Earth. As his father lies dying in the cockpit, Kitai must trek across the hostile terrain to recover their rescue beacon. His whole life, Kitai has wanted nothing more than to be a soldier like his father. Today, he gets his chance.
Check out the trailer below. After Earth hits theaters on June 7, 2013.
