First Trailer For M. Night Shymalan’s ‘After Earth’ Starring Will Smith Released

The first trailer for the M. Night Shymalan (Unbreakable, Signs) directed After Earth has arrived online. The film, which stars Will Smith (MIB3) and son Jaden (The Karate Kid), looks like it may be one of the hits from the hit-and-miss director. But then again, so did The Happening.

One thousand years after cataclysmic events forced humanity’s escape from Earth, Nova Prime has become mankind’s new home. Legendary General Cypher Raige (Will Smith) returns from an extended tour of duty to his estranged family, ready to be a father to his 13-year-old son, Kitai (Jaden Smith). When an asteroid storm damages Cypher and Kitai’s craft, they crash-land on a now unfamiliar and dangerous Earth. As his father lies dying in the cockpit, Kitai must trek across the hostile terrain to recover their rescue beacon. His whole life, Kitai has wanted nothing more than to be a soldier like his father. Today, he gets his chance.

After Earth hits theaters June 7, 2013.
