Here’s the first trailer for the Minority Report TV series

MINORITY REPORT | Official Trailer | FOX BROADCASTING
It was just shy of a year ago that Fox announced its plans to spin a television series out of the 2002 movie Minority Report, and now we have our first look at that program, courtesy of the show’s first official trailer.

The network released the three-minute preview of Minority Report after announcing that the series had received a full-season order, putting it in line to premiere later this year.

The new series is set ten years after the events of the original film, which cast Tom Cruise as a law enforcement officer in the Washington, D.C. “PreCrime” unit, charged with stopping crimes before they happen with the help of three people who experience “precognitive” visions of the future.

As Dash, one of the former “PreCogs,” struggles with the crimes he continues to see in his mind before they happen, he finds an unlikely ally in police detective Lara Vega (played by Think Like a Man actress Meagan Good), an officer with a troubled past. Along with attempting to prevent the murders predicted by Dash (played by Inside Llewyn Davis actor Stark Sands), the pair searches for Dash’s twin brother, Arthur, while evading people who are looking to eliminate — or exploit — his visions of the future.

The series also stars Laura Regan (Unbreakable) as PreCog Agatha, the PreCog rescued by Cruise’s character in the 2002 film who was originally played by actress Samantha Morton.

There’s currently no official premiere date for the series, which was one of several new shows Fox announced as “coming soon” to the network. While Cruise isn’t likely to reprise his role from the film, the series is being produced by the original film’s director, Steven Spielberg, and his production studio Amblin Entertainment. Paramount Television, 20th Century Fox TV, and Max Borenstein (Godzilla) also serve as producers on the series.

10 best cyberpunk movies ever made, ranked
Officer K looking up at a neon-colored hologram in Blade Runner 2049.

Some of the most visionary, visually stunning, and cutting-edge movies fall under the cyberpunk subgenre. These films are often characterized by their gritty, urban settings, and the advanced technology that heavily influence their stories. They also almost always feature anti-establishment protagonists who exist within corrupt societies ruled by powerful corporations. Several incredible narratives unfold in these familiar, yet distant worlds where the lines between man and machine become increasingly blurred.

From groundbreaking genre-defining classics like Blade Runner and The Matrix to modern favorites like Blade Runner 2049 and Dredd, the best cyberpunk movies depict a variety of realities where humanity is challenged by corporate greed or malicious technology. These high-tech societies are fantastic portraits of potential futures, with the greatest ones leaving audiences both fascinated and frightened.

The Acolyte’s first trailer embraces the Dark Side of Star Wars
Amandla Stenberg in The Acolyte.

Since the launch of Disney+ in 2019, there have been four live-action Star Wars series, including The Mandalorian and Andor. But the one thing that each of those shows had in common was that they followed the hero of the story. This summer, The Acolyte is flipping the switch on that by putting the spotlight on Mae (Amandla Stenberg), a former Padawan in the Jedi Order who seems to have quite a grudge against her onetime masters. That may be why Mae is attacking and apparently killing Jedi with knives in the first trailer for The Acolyte.
