'Tick, Tick... BOOM!' trailer: Andrew Garfield plays 'Rent' creator Jonathan Larson

Oct. 4 (UPI) -- Netflix is giving a glimpse of the new film Tick, Tick... Boom!

The streaming service shared a trailer for the musical drama Monday featuring Andrew Garfield as Rent creator Jonathan Larson.

Tick, Tick... Boom! is based on Larson's autobiographical musical of the same name. The film follows Jon (Garfield), a young theater composer, as he navigates love, friendship and the pressures of life as an artist in New York City in 1990.

"With the clock ticking, Jon is at a crossroads and faces the question everyone must reckon with: What are we meant to do with the time we have?" an official description reads.

Tick, Tick... Boom! marks Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda's feature-length directorial debut. The film also stars Vanessa Hudgens, Alexandra Shipp, Robin de Jesús, Joshua Henry, Judith Light and Bradley Whitford.

Netflix also released a first song from the film, "30/90," on Monday.

The original Tick, Tick... Boom! musical features music, lyrics and a book by Larson, who died at age 35 in 1996.

Garfield is known for playing Peter Parker, aka Spider-Man, in The Amazing Spider-Man and its sequel. His theater credits include Death of a Salesman and Angels in America.
