One of the standout sequences this past summer in Luc Besson's visually stunning Valerian and the City of the Thousand Planets was undoubtedly the exciting "Big Market" sequence, which saw Major Valerian (Dane DeHaan) and Sergeant Laureline (Cara Delevingne) use a variety of futuristic techniques to recover a stolen converter from the notorious pirate captain Igon Siruss (John Goodman) before he could sell it off to the highest bidder.

With the film set to arrive on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD this coming Tuesday, November 21st, STX Entertainment and Lionsgate have provided us with a new behind-the-scenes featurette that takes a deep dive into that adrenaline-pumping sequence and how it came to be. Check it out below:

VALERIAN AND THE CITY OF A THOUSAND PLANETS is the visually spectacular new adventure film from Luc Besson, the legendary director of The Professional, The Fifth Element and Lucy, based on the ground-breaking comic book series which inspired a generation of artists, writers and filmmakers.

In the 28th century, Valerian (Dane DeHaan) and Laureline (Cara Delevingne) are a team of special operatives charged with maintaining order throughout the human territories. Under assignment from the Minister of Defense, the two embark on a mission to the astonishing city of Alpha—an ever-expanding metropolis where species from all over the universe have converged over centuries to share knowledge, intelligence and cultures with each other. There is a mystery at the center of Alpha, a dark force which threatens the peaceful existence of the City of a Thousand Planets, and Valerian and Laureline must race to identify the marauding menace and safeguard not just Alpha, but the future of the universe.

This movie was good, could have been great, needed better main cast. The CGI was on point.
