Check out the new poster for VALERIAN AND THE CITY OF A THOUSAND PLANETS which also features Rihanna!

Valerian and The City of a Thousand Planets is almost here, with just a few months left before it hits theaters a new poster has just been released. The movie is based off of the classic French comics Valerian and Laureline.

So check it out below:

Rooted in the classic graphic novel series, Valerian and Laureline– visionary writer/director Luc Besson advances this iconic source material into a contemporary, unique and epic science fiction saga.

Valerian (Dane DeHaan) and Laureline (Cara Delevingne) are special operatives for the government of the human territories charged with maintaining order throughout the universe. Valerian has more in mind than a professional relationship with his partner- blatantly chasing after her with propositions of romance. But his extensive history with women, and her traditional values, drive Laureline to continuously rebuff him.

Under directive from their Commander (Clive Owen), Valerian and Laureline embark on a mission to the breathtaking intergalactic city of Alpha, an ever-expanding metropolis comprised of thousands of different species from all four corners of the universe. Alpha’s seventeen million inhabitants have converged over time- uniting their talents, technology and resources for the betterment of all. Unfortunately, not everyone on Alpha shares in these same objectives; in fact, unseen forces are at work, placing our race in great danger.

The movie is written and directed by Luc Besson and produced by Virginie Besson-Silla. The movie also stars Rihanna, Ethan Hawke, John Goodman, Herbie Hancock, and Kris Wu along side Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevingne.  

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets opens in theaters on July 21, 2017.
