Amazon has released the first teaser trailer for The Tomorrow War, starring Chris Pratt and directed by Chris McKay (The LEGO Batman Movie) in his first live-action directorial effort. The trailer drop comes on the heels of some first-look images that were released yesterday, which offered only a hint of the time-traveling action to come. The teaser also reminds audiences to tune in on the streaming service for when the film finally drops on July 2, only on Prime Video.

The first look tease from Amazon promises even more exhilarating story. From the jump, it's clear that this is going to be an intense movie that pairs classic action with a sci-fi twist. Pratt features heavily as everyman Dan Forester, part of the group who gets tapped for this extraordinary mission to protect the Earth from an otherworldly threat. What would happen if you were called on to fight a war that wouldn't start for another 30 years? The Tomorrow War looks like it'll definitely answer that question and then some.
