Today brings a new trailer for Gareth Edwards’ new Sci-Fi film, The Creator, which continues to look all kinds of impressive.
Seemingly coming out of nowhere the other month with a first trailer, The Creator pretty much immediately put itself near the top of this year’s must-see lists. Today’s brand new trailer only further cements that idea:
While it’s tackling familiar Sci-Fi tropes (AI versus humans), the execution here looks ridiculously impressive with plenty of great action and tons of heart. I’m definitely down for this one.
Amidst a future war between the human race and the forces of artificial intelligence, Joshua (Washington), a hardened ex-special forces agent grieving the disappearance of his wife (Chan), is recruited to hunt down and kill the Creator, the elusive architect of advanced AI who has developed a mysterious weapon with the power to end the war… and mankind itself. Joshua and his team of elite operatives journey across enemy lines, into the dark heart of AI-occupied territory… only to discover the world-ending weapon he’s been instructed to destroy is an AI in the form of a young child.
Directed by Gareth Edwards (“Rogue One,” “Godzilla”), the film stars John David Washington (“Tenet”), Gemma Chan (“Eternals”), Ken Watanabe (“Inception”), Sturgill Simpson (“Dog”), newcomer Madeleine Yuna Voyles and Academy Award® winner Allison Janney (“I, Tonya”). The film’s screenplay is by Gareth Edwards and Chris Weitz, from a story by Edwards. The producers are Gareth Edwards, p.g.a., Kiri Hart, Jim Spencer, p.g.a. and Arnon Milchan. The executive producers are Yariv Milchan, Michael Schaefer, Natalie Lehmann, Nick Meyer and Zev Foreman.
The Creator hits theaters on September 29, 2023.
