Adam Driver can do no wrong. While he’s one of the two main stars of the widely despised Star Wars sequel trilogy, he gave us one of the more fascinating and complex villains from the faraway galaxy in Kylo Ren.
And now, he’s set to visit another faraway galaxy (by “another faraway galaxy”, we mean ours), as the first trailer for upcoming sci-fi adventure thriller 65 just crash-landed on the Internet.
Check it out below:
The film revolves around the character Mills (Adam Driver) and Koa (Ariana Greenblatt) as they crash-land on a seemingly alien world that they quickly realize is actually Earth 65 million years ago.
As such, they have to fend off against deadly dinosaurs. Needless to say, it looks like Star Wars meets Jurassic World, but perhaps The Time Machine (2002) meets King Kong (2005) is a more apt description.
It also has The Last of Us vibes, with an older male character who must protect a young female as they trek across a dangerous landscape. It’s a trope that’s becoming quite common in film nowadays, but on the other hand, it’s refreshing to see a dinosaur movie that isn’t Jurassic World.
As per Wikipedia, here’s the synopsis for 65:
After a catastrophic crash on an unknown planet, pilot Mills quickly discovers he’s stranded on Earth… 65 million years ago. Now, with only one chance at rescue, Mills and the only other survivor, Koa, must make their way across an unknown terrain riddled with dangerous prehistoric creatures (including dinosaurs) in an epic fight to survive.
The film stars Adam Driver and Ariana Greenblatt.
65 releases in theaters on March 10, 2023.
