LOS ANGELES, Nov. 10 (UPI) -- Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets released an epic first teaser trailer Thursday.

Valerian is based on the Pierre Christin and Jean-Claude Mezieres comic series Valerian and Laureline. The adaptation is directed by The Fifth Element helmer Luc Besson, and co-stars Clive Owen, Rihanna and Kris Wu.
"I kick [expletive]!" Delevingne said in a behind-the-scenes video in April. "I love it so much. My kind of tomboy comes out. It's kind of always what I wanted to do, especially as a kid. I feel like I'm kind of living my dream."
"I can't even imagine what it's going to be like for the audience," she added. "[They will] be completely blown away visually, emotionally. Every particle of their body will be blown away."
Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets opens in theaters July 21, 2017. DeHaan and Delevingne will also co-star in Justin Chadwick's adaptation of the Deborah Moggach novel Tulip Fever, which opens Feb. 24.
