Bizarre.

Can’t wait, tbh.

The trailer for Robert Pattinson’s new film High Life is here and it looks like the strangest, sexiest thing you’ll watch this year.

Directed by Claire Denis and from studio A24, the film follows a group of death-row inmates who are for some, likely horrifying, reason being “recycled to serve science.”

The movie is Denis’ first feature length English language film and it’s already been described as “one of the strangest films you’ll ever see” and “an eerily sexy space thriller” so, you know, sounds promising.

The trailer shows Pattinson milling around a spaceship with some other people including Andre 3000, Juliette Binoche, and Mia Goth.

Things all seem fairly well and good until you remember that these people are absolutely in the midst of some serious existential crisis seeing as they’ve just been floating around space for an unknown amount of time after being sure that they were going to be killed on earth.

The film has received an impressive amount of very decent reviews too, which is making us even more excited to see it when it finally drops in cinemas later this year.

Essentially, it looks like it’s going to be tense as shit – and we can’t wait, tbh.
