The future needs saving in spectacular new Tomorrowland trailer

Tomorrowland Trailer #2

Walt Disney Pictures’ upcoming sci-fi adventure Tomorrowland has been steeped in mystery for much of the film’s production, with little known about the plot of Oscar-winning director Brad Bird’s movie or how it might tie-in with the attraction of the same name at the Disney theme parks. The first trailer for the film that aired during this year’s Super Bowl didn’t offer much in the way of answers, but the latest sneak peek provides a bit more context for what we’ve seen of the sci-fi film so far, alongside some spectacular special effects.

In the new trailer, clever teenager Casey (Britt Robertson) is shown receiving — and subsequently being caught up in the secrets of — a strange pin that transports her to a place where futuristic technology we’ve only dreamed about is very, very real. Along the way, she’s seen meeting former boy-genius inventor Frank (George Clooney) and scientist David Nix (Hugh Laurie), and we’re treated to scenes of fighting robots, laser guns, and even a massive spaceship launching out of a tower in the center of a city.

Basically, it appears to be everything a sci-fi fan could want… plus George Clooney and the star of House, M.D.

Written by Bird (Ratatouille, The Incredibles) and Lost co-creator Damon Lindelof, Tomorrowland also stars Raffey Cassidy, Tim McGraw, Judy Greer, Kathryn Hahn, Keegan-Michael Key (of Key & Peele fame), and Thomas Robinson.

Tomorrowland hits theaters May 22, 2015.

If you have to watch one Peacock movie this April, stream this one

A boy looks surprised standing in front of a girl in Let the Right One In.

Given its relatively low number of total subscribers, it's easy to understand how you might forget about Peacock, even if you're one of those subscribers. The service arrived on the streaming scene later in the game, and it was crowded out for many people by Netflix, Max, and Disney+.

Just because the service isn't as popular as some of its competitors, though, doesn't mean there aren't plenty of things worth watching on it. In addition to some devilishly fun original series like Poker Face, Peacock is also home to a great archive of older movies, some of which you might not expect to find on the service. We've selected an especially spooky one, Let the Right One In, as a movie you should definitely check out this April.

3 BritBox shows you should watch in April 2024

Two women talk to each other while a man stares at them from behind.

While Hollywood is often seen as the best place in the world to make entertainment, you've probably wondered on more than one occasion whether that was actually the case. After all, in spite of their much smaller population, the Brits seem to churn out some pretty excellent films and TV shows at a pretty regular clip.

And what's even better is that they don't keep to the same kind of rigid schedule that many U.S. shows do. Shows return only when they want to, and can run for as long as they please. Americans have started to adopt that model more recently, and to great success. If you're looking for the real thing, though, it's better to just check out what's available on BritBox, which is home to plenty of great British-made content. We've pulled out three shows from the streaming service worth checking out this month.
