EuropaCorp has unveiled some
new images from Luc Besson's upcoming sci-fi opera, Valerian and the City of a
Thousand Planets.
Based on Pierre
Christin and Jean-Claude Mézières' long-running graphic novel series Valérian
and Laureline, the film stars Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevingne
as a couple of spatio-temporal agents tasked with
protecting the intergalactic city of Alpha from dangerous threats.
Opening in theaters on July
21, 2017, Valerian and the City of a
Thousand Planets also stars Clive Owen, Ethan Hawke, Rihanna, John Goodman,
Ruger Hauer, Kris Wu, Pauline Hoarau, and Herbie Hancock.
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.
