The First Footage From Arrival Is Here, And It Looks Incredible 

Video: The first trailer from Arrival, Denis Villeneuve’s adaptation of the Ted Chiang short story Story Of Your Life is finally here. It looks like an Oscar contender wrapped in a high-concept blockbuster package, which is a way to say it looks great.

Paramount Pictures is releasing the film, which stars Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner and Forest Whitaker, on November 10. A full trailer comes out next week but, for now, check this out.

And if you don’t get the premise from the trailer, here’s the official description:

When mysterious spacecraft touch down across the globe, an elite team – lead by expert linguist Louise Banks (Amy Adams) – are brought together to investigate. As mankind teeters on the verge of global war, Banks and the team race against time for answers — and to find them, she will take a chance that could threaten her life, and quite possibly humanity.

Arrival, formerly Story of Your Life, opens November 10.
