Paramount has just released the first trailer for Overlord, the latest film from J.J. Abrams' Bad Robot. Set during World War II, the movie follows a team of US paratroopers that drop behind enemy lines and discover terrifying Nazi experiments.
Overlord was directed by Julius Avery and stars Jovan Adepo, Wyatt Russell, Pilou Asbæk, John Magaro, and Mathilde Ollivier. The screenplay was written by Billy Ray and Mark L. Smith, based on a story by Billy Ray. Executive producers include Jo Burn, Jon Cohen and Cory Bennett Lewis, and the movie was produced by J.J. Abrams & Lindsey Weber.
"On the eve of D-Day, American paratroopers are dropped behind enemy lines to carry out a mission crucial to the invasion’s success. But as they approach their target, they begin to realize there is more going on in this Nazi-occupied village than a simple military operation. They find themselves fighting against supernatural forces, part of a Nazi experiment."
Overlord will be released to theaters on November 9th and it will be getting an IMAX release as well. Along with the official trailer and first stills, which we've included below, the social pages for Overlord have also gone live so you can keep up with any updates.
