With a reported $220 million budget, Luc Besson's highly ambitious upcoming film adaptation of Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets is surely one the biggest films hitting the silver screen this summer, but whether or not it'll be able to find an audience in a crowded July, which will also see the releases of Marvel's Spider-Man: Homecoming, 20th Century Fox's War for the Planet of the Apes, and Warner Bros.' Dunkirk, is yet-to-be-seen.
After releasing a new theatrical one-sheet last week, STX Entertainment (via Mashable) has debuted eight new characters posters that spotlight the main players, including the operatives played by Dane DeHaan, Cara Delevingne, and Rihanna.

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.
