MUTE Trailer Gives Us A Bizarre Glimpse Into MOON Director Duncan Jones' Visually Stunning Sci-Fi World
Following a brief teaser, we now have the full trailer and a poster for Duncan Jones' (Warcraft, Moon) highly anticipated new sci-fi thriller, Mute, which is set to premiere on Netflix later this year...
Sci-fi fans have been anxiously awaiting a first (proper) look at Moon director Duncan Jones' Mute, and the full trailer has just debuted along with a new poster.
Set in futuristic Berlin, Mute follows a bartender (Alexander Skarsgård) who teams up with a pair of surgeons (Paul Rudd and Justin Theroux) to track down his missing girlfriend. The film is the second part of Jones' trilogy which kicked-off with Moon, and is apparently set in the same universe.
The trailer gives us some idea of what to expect from the plot, but still maintains an air of mystery. Based on the footage, it's safe to say our eyeballs are in for a good time at the very least.
Berlin, the future, but close enough to feel familiar: In this loud, often brutal city, Leo (Alexander Skarsgård) – unable to speak from a childhood accident – searches for his missing girlfriend, the love of his life, his salvation, through dark streets, frenzied plazas, and the full spectrum of the cities shadow-dwellers. As he seeks answers, Leo finds himself mixed up with Cactus Bill (Paul Rudd) and Duck (Justin Theroux), a pair of irreverent US army surgeons on a mission all their own. This soulful sci-fi journey from filmmaker Duncan Jones (Moon, Source Code, Warcraft) imagines a world of strange currencies in which echoes of love and humanity are still worth listening to.
Mute is set to premier eon Netflix on February 23.
