Things get complicated once the crime fighting duo run into a powerful, magical wand that has fallen into the wrong hands.

"Set in an alternate present-day where humans, orcs, elves, and fairies have been co-existing since the beginning of time, Bright is genre-bending action movie that follows two cops from very different backgrounds," reads the synopsis.

"Ward (Will Smith) and Jakoby (Joel Edgerton), embark on a routine patrol night and encounter a darkness that will ultimately alter the future and their world as they know it," it continues.

Directed by David Ayer (End of Watch, Suicide Squad) and written by Max Landis (Chronicle), Bright is set to arrive on Netflix on Dec. 22.
