Directed by M. Night Shyamalan, After Earth is an science-fiction thriller film starring real-life father and son Will and Jaden Smith as Cypher and Kitai Raige.
In After Earth, one thousand years after cataclysmic events forced humanity’s escape from Earth, Nova Prime has become mankind’s new home. Legendary General Cypher Raige (played by Will Smith) returns from an extended tour of duty to his estranged family, ready to be a father to his 13-year-old son, Kitai (played by Jaden Smith). When an asteroid storm damages Cypher and Kitai’s craft, they crash-land on a now unfamiliar and dangerous Earth. As his father lies dying in the cockpit, Kitai must trek across the hostile terrain to recover their rescue beacon. His whole life, Kitai has wanted nothing more than to be a soldier like his father. Today, he gets his chance.
After Earth also stars Zoe Kravitz and Sophie Okonedo as Will Smith’s daughter and wife. It opens in theaters on June 7th from Columbia Pictures. Take a look at the new trailer and let us know what you think.
