Trailers for "Life" directed by Daniel Espinosa (Easy Money, Safe House, Child 44) and written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick (Zombieland, Deadpool). Starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Rebecca Ferguson and Ryan Reynolds.
Official trailerInternational trailerA few websites that posted the trailer pointed out that there is a similarly themed film tentatively titled "God Particle" produced by J.J. Abrams (as part of his Cloverfield anthology series) that comes out a few months prior. Obviously, sci-fi films about mankind in space are a cornerstone of that genre, but with the success in recent years of films like Gravity/Interstellar/The Martian, I think of the idea that whenever a certain type of film is successful, any script that is similar will jump to the head of a studio's development (there's even another Alien film next year).
