As first trailers go, this is a pretty spectacular effort.

Plot’s it all about? The latest reincarnation of a premise that has been documented several times in the movie business sees Tom Cruise rise from the death after a horrible plane crash to battle against an ancient princess whose destiny was unjustly taken from her.

Needless to say, she isn’t at all happy about it and after being awakened in the present day, she brings with her malevolence grown over millennia, and terrors that defy human comprehension.

Scary.

Starring: Tom Cruise, Russell Crowe, Sofia Boutella, Annabelle Wallis, Jake Johnson, Courtney B. Vance

Directed by: Alex Kurtzman

Irish release date: 9 June, 2017
