Disney has released the first Tomorrowland trailer for director Brad Bird’s mysterious new sci-fi film. Scripted by Bird and Lost alum Damon Lindelof, the film stars George Clooney and revolves around "a bright, optimistic teen (Britt Robertson) bursting with scientific curiosity and a former boy-genius inventor jaded by disillusionment who embark on a danger-filled mission to unearth the secrets of an enigmatic place somewhere in time and space that exists in their collective memory as ‘Tomorrowland.’" And the trailer is great, offering a simple scenario that hints at the film's possibilities without spoiling too much. I love Robertson's reaction to the reveal.
