The first official trailer for Passengers is finally here! Sony dropped the look at the new sci-fi romance starring Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence this morning—and you can consider our appetites whet.
The trailer (above) begins with a cute moment between Jim (Pratt) and Aurora (Lawrence) on a deserted spaceship, when he asks her to dinner with the help of a note and a robot.
“Are you asking me on a date?” Aurora asks the little robot holding a note that reads “dinner?” The robot, which is being controlled by Jim, replies with a nod of its head and hands her a pen. Aurora smiles, writes “Yes” on the note, hands it to the robot and returns to her cup of coffee.
“She didn’t seem that impressed,” Jim, who is somewhere else on the ship, mutters to himself as he maneuvers the robot away from her.
But as the trailer flashes to a clip of them on a romantic date later that night, it’s clear his charm tactics worked.
Passengers is set on a spacecraft in the future, with thousands of passengers making an interstellar voyage to a distant new planet. The story begins when Jim awakens from the cryogenic sleep 90 years before anyone else and decides to wake up Aurora, sparking the beginning of a love story. It’s all fun and games—and robots—until the ship begins to malfunction and they find themselves in a critical situation.
Sounds like a hit to us!
