            After seeing the teaser for Denis Villeneuve’s upcoming sci-fi drama Arrival last week, I’ve become increasingly excited for this project that was already one of my most anticipated for the year. Yesterday, Paramount revealed the full length trailer for the film and it looks absolutely fantastic.

            Arrival is a film which provides a look of aliens coming to Earth and in an attempt to communicate with the species, expert linguist Louise Banks (played by five-time Oscar nominee Amy Adams) is recruited to decipher the language of the aliens. This would establish a dialogue before the world spirals out of control due to the fear, mystery and mistrust with these species of another kind.

            Villeneuve has quickly become one of my favorite directors because of his previous works like Prisoners and Sicario, two criminally underrated films. With his take on the sci-fi genre and the talent attached in Adams and co-stars Jeremy Renner and Forest Whitaker, I’m incredibly interested to see how this original idea will translate on screen.

            Arrival will play at the Toronto International Film Festival and Venice Film Festival before opening in the U.S. on November 11^th. Check out the trailer below!
