The age of intriguing sci-fi thrillers rolls on as Paramount offers a first look at ANNIHILATION, the new film from writer/director Alex Garland (Ex Machina, 28 Days Later). Releasing in on 22 February 2018, you can check out the first look trailer below.

Based on Jeff VanderMeer’s best-selling Southern Reach Trilogy , it follows Lena (Natalie Portman) as biologist whose husband (Oscar Isaac) disappears. She puts her name forward for an expedition into an environmental disaster zone, but does not quite find what she’s expecting.

With a formidable cast that also includes Jennifer Jason Leigh, Gina Rodriguez, Tessa Thompson, and Tuva Novotny, this is definitely an early one to watch out for in 2018.
