When times are grim at the end of the world, things can only get better. In the second UK Trailer for The Dog Stars, Jacob Elordi is hoping for ‘something better awaits‘.

At end of the world no one survives alone and in Sir Ridley Scott‘s sci-fi thriller, it’s those survivors you need to be careful with. What humanity we knew before the apocalyptic event that changed the world has gone. The Dog Stars follows Hig (Elordi) a pilot who who steps out of his isolation to track down a mysterious radio transmission. What awaits them is marauding survivors, what ‘better life’ awaits them if they pull through?

The film is based on Petter Heller‘s book of the same name and it looks bleak. Teasing something of a ‘pandemic’ rather than some war related apocalypse causing the breakdown. Like every challenge in life, hope guides us and ‘hope’ the dog survives!

The rest of the cast for this one includes Josh Brolin, Margaret Qualley, Guy Pearce, Benedict Wong, and Allison Janney.
