Stop What You’re Doing and Go to the Cosmos with This New Interstellar Trailer


You might be tempted to blacklist any more footage from Interstellar until the movie actually comes out. That’s fair. It’s the kind of film where the mystery leading up to its release feels essential to the viewing experience itself. It would be understandable if you wanted to let all the jittery excitement and anticipation bottle up so that by the time the lights dim in the theater you want to jettison out of your seat like the rocket on screen. But the latest Interstellar trailer hit the web today, and it is so worth your time.


In other words, stop whatever you think is more important and watch this trailer now.


The first trailer for Interstellar came out last year and was pretty vague. It was essentially a stream of two-seconds-max wordless visuals: news clips, humanity, history, space, Earth, life, death, corn, Matthew McConaughey crying in a truck, rocket shooting out of a field. We trusted director Christopher Nolan implicitly but it was still a little “Oh-kaaaaaay…”


The second full-length spot introduced us to our hero (McConaughey), his family, and the fact that life on our planet is no longer tenable. This was good stuff and had us crying one minute in. We learned that food is running out, and we must look to the cosmos for our salvation. The third trailer gave us an even split between terrestrial and space narratives and showed audiences there is going to be a lot of time spent among the stars in Interstellar, appropriately.


Now comes this brand new trailer, and it’s all space space space! And not just any space; it’s, like, gorgeous space. Is that a mountain in the distance? NOPE! It’s an apocalyptic freaky alien ocean wave!


Guess what, America: Christmas arrives on Nov. 7 this year, and the role of Santa will be played by Christopher Nolan. Bring all your tissues with you.
