Welcome yet again to another episode of Trailer Thursday, and this time we’re in for a sci-fi treat with new movie Annihilation.
Do you want to know one of my favourite things about Hollywood? The world’s always about to end every other week.
Aliens, imminent doom and big bad boom! Yep, sounds like an apocalypse to me.
Don’t let me bore you with my antics, I hope you enjoy this one as it is set to hit the cinemas on the 23rd of this month, it certainly promises to be a catch.
ANNIHILATION
In seeking answers to her husband’s tragic disappearance, a biologist volunteers for an expedition into an area sealed off by the government for the last 30 years as an environmental disaster zone. A secret agency known as the Southern Reach has sent in 11 expeditions over those years to discover the truth about Area X, and those attempts were failures. She and her team find a pristine wilderness, but they also notice quickly that the rules of nature and evolution seem to work a little differently. And the creature they find is dangerous.
Based on the novel by Jeff VanderMeer. The novel which is the first book in the “Southern Reach” trilogy and will be published by Farrar Straus & Giroux.
Starring Natalie Portman, Gina Rodriguez, Tessa Thompson, Oscar Isaac, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tuva Novotny and directed by Alex Garland, it certainly should be worth watching, I’ve always been skeptical of apocalyptic kind of sci-fi’s so fingers crossed everyone. And dare it not meet your expectations, if anyone asks, we’ve never met!
