Under The Skin First Trailer Starring Scarlett Johansson

Here is the first trailer for Jonathan Glazer’s sci-fi drama Under the Skin, starring Scarlett Johansson and Paul Brannigan.

Under the Skin tells the story of an alien (Johansson) on Earth, disguised as a beautiful woman that “capture, destroy and presumably send home human males.” (Species anyone?)

Under the Skin Synopsis:

“Under The Skin“: In search of loners, Laura (Scarlett Johansson) drives around the exquisitely moody landscapes of the Scottish highlands. She’s an alien,sent from afar and equipped with enough human language and awesome seductive power to capture, destroy and presumably send home human males. And then, her curiosity about her human body and an accidental act of pity disrupt her mission: talk about lost in translation! Jonathan Glazer, known for his brilliant music videos and SEXY BEAST, and co-writer Walter Campbell adapt Michael Faber’s acclaimed novel to create a surprisingly layered tale. UNDER THE SKIN begins like an effectively creepy sci-fi horror film, but soon deepens into a lyrical evocation of solitude and estrangement and a mournful lament for ephemeral earthly beauty.The photography by Daniel Landin is richly atmospheric, and Peter Raeburn’s musical themes provide an ominous depth. –LG (U.K., 2013, 107m)
