Check out the all-new trailer for The Dog Stars below:

Here’s the official synopsis:

The film tells the story of Hig (Jacob Elordi), a young pilot who, together with a military survivalist, Bangley (Josh Brolin), has carved out an efficient but isolated homestead in a brutal post-apocalyptic world. But when Hig receives a mysterious radio transmission, he ventures into the unknown in search of the hope and humanity he still believes exist.

Building off of the original teaser trailer, this new trailer for The Dog Stars delivers an elevated view of its scary world, along with focusing in on the broken psyche of its lead protagonist Hig (Jacon Elordi), a skilled pilot and survivor who is desperate for a chance to escape, and might have found a way to salvation.

Jacob Elordi is truly the man of the moment, and it’s exciting to see him join Sir Ridley Scott for The Dog Stars, and he brings a certain Steve McQueen presence to the role of Hig, and is joined by a stellar supporting cast including the likes of Josh Brolin as Bangley, an aloof, gun-toting ex-Marine and Hig’s companion; Margaret Qualley as Cima, a young medic and Hig’s love interest, and Guy Pearce as Pops, a former Navy SEAL and Cima’s father.

The action is ramped right the way up as well, and The Dog Stars goes hard on its exploration of its science-fiction, post-apocalyptic world, and Scott gives the action is certain gritty feralness that will keep audiences on edge the whole way through.

Here’s the official synopsis:

Hig (Jacob Elordi), a young pilot who, together with a military survivalist, Bangley (Josh Brolin), has carved out an efficient but isolated homestead in a brutal post-apocalyptic world until a mysterious radio transmission spurs Hig to venture into the unknown in search of the hope and humanity he still believes exists.

Revealed at this year’s CinemaCon presentation in Las Vegas, The Dog Stars is an adaptation of the best-selling book by Peter Heller, and throws audiences into a riveting, epic thriller set in a world where survival is instinct, but humanity is a choice.

Packing together a fantastic cast which is lead by key Hollywood rising star Jaocb Elordi as Hig, a reclusive pilot, who hasn’t let his humanity escape him, alongside Josh Brolin’s aloof, gun-toting Ex-Marine Survivalist Bangley, Hig soon finds himself in conversation with Cima (Margaret Qualley), a young medic, whom he soon starts developing feelings for, an is thrown into an adventure of pure survival and hope as this unlikely trio tries to reconnect with civilisation outside of their self-imposed quarantine zone.

Scott draws in both a sense of heavy drama, intense thrills, and explosive action, along with delivering his quintessential standout visuals that have long been a key element of his storytelling process, and The Dog Stars is set to be an innovative and scattershot tale of survival against all odds that will utterly pull audiences into the towering drama that is unfolding before them. There’s a big canvas at play as well, and from the look of this first trailer its clear that The Dog Stars is going to be a grand cinematic spectacle.
