NYCC: First Official Poster For VALERIAN AND THE CITY OF A THOUSAND PLANETS Revealed
Ahead of its New York Comic-Con panel this weekend, check out the first official poster and some revealing new stills for Luc Besson's sci-fi epic, Valerian and The City of A Thousand Planets...
When footage from Luc Besson's Valerian and The City of A Thousand Planets screened a few months back at SDCC, it was met with a standing ovation - so fans have been looking forward to the first officially released teaser trailer, which should debut this weekend during New York Comic-Con.
In anticipation of that, EuropaCorp has released the first poster for the sci-fi flick, along with three new images featuring the main cast members (Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevingne) and a trio of alien characters known as the Doghan Daguis.
Valerian (Dane DeHaan) and Laureline (Cara Delevingne) are special operatives for the government of the human territories charged with maintaining order throughout the universe. Valerian has more in mind than a professional relationship with his partner- blatantly chasing after her with propositions of romance. But his extensive history with women, and her traditional values, drive Laureline to continuously rebuff him.
Under directive from their Commander (Clive Owen), Valerian and Laureline embark on a mission to the breathtaking intergalactic city of Alpha, an ever-expanding metropolis comprised of thousands of different species from all four corners of the universe. Alpha’s seventeen million inhabitants have converged over time- uniting their talents, technology and resources for the betterment of all. Unfortunately, not everyone on Alpha shares in these same objectives; in fact, unseen forces are at work, placing our race in great danger.
Valerian also stars John Goodman, Ethan Hawke, Clive Owen, Rutger Hauer and Rihanna, and is set to hit theaters on July 21, 2017.
