Everything Goes Wrong in New Trailer and Clips for Sci-Fi Movie Passengers

Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence fall in love as their spaceship heads for destruction.

Sony Pictures has released a new trailer and two more clips for its upcoming sci-fi space movie Passengers, which stars Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence as space travelers.

In the videos, we see Pratt and Lawrence waking up from hypersleep 90 years too early, discovering they are alone, except for a robot-bartender played by Martin Sheen. Their awakening may not be an accident, as Pratt's character seems convinced something else is afoot. Take a look:

"It's just one of those stories that really grabs you," director Morten Tyldum (The Imitation Game) said about the movie earlier this year. "The script was so smart and funny and clever and it was such a page turner, I couldn't put it down."

Passengers' story is unique in that the store is completely original, not based on anything in particular (though it does have a Titanic-in-space vibe to it), according to Collider. It was written by Jon Spaihts (Prometheus, Doctor Strange).

In an interview with Vanity Fair earlier this year, Lawrence spoke about the problems of filming some of the movie's more intimate scenes with Pratt, who is married in real life to Scary Movie star Anna Faris.

"It was going to be my first time kissing a married man, and guilt is the worst feeling in your stomach,” she said. "And I knew it was my job, but I couldn't tell my stomach that. You want to do it real, you want everything to be real, but then... that was the most vulnerable I've ever been."

Passengers also stars Laurence Fishburne. It hits theaters on December 21, which is the same day that Fox video game movie Assassin's Creed opens.
