We got our first look at the new film from director Ridley Scott back in April, following the Disney presentation at CinemaCom. 20th Century Studios has released the official trailer, along with a poster and three new images for The Dog Stars. We have a lot of new footage featuring the main cast, along with more hints about the kind of post-apocalyptic story we're dealing with. At the moment, the marketing is still being a bit vague about what ended this world and why the survivors are the thing you should be afraid of.

The Dog Stars: Summary, Cast List, Release Date

From visionary director Ridley Scott's The Dog Stars is a riveting, epic thriller set in a world where survival is instinct, but humanity is a choice. Scott tells the story of Hig, a young pilot who, together with a military survivalist, Bangley, has carved out an efficient but isolated homestead in a brutal post-apocalyptic world until a mysterious radio transmission spurs Hig to venture into the unknown in search of the hope and humanity he still believes exists.
