Watch the mysterious Tomorrowland trailer


If you've visited Disneyland's Tomorrowland, you'll be thrilled about the Tomorrowland film, a Disney production that will hit theaters in May.
The sci-fi film is directed by Brad Bird and stars George Clooney as Frank, a former child genius who's "jaded by disillusionment." Frank joins Florida teen Casey (Britt Robertson) on "a danger-filled mission to unearth the secrets of an enigmatic place somewhere in time and space." To reach Tomorrowland, the trailer reveals, Casey must clutch a mysterious pin, which resembles the Disney theme park's Tomorrowland logo.
"We begin our movie asking, 'What did [the future] used to be?'" Bird told Entertainment Weekly. "'What's good about the future, and what's scary about it?' And we wrestle with those things in a slightly mythical way." The trailer doesn't reveal too much information, but with a screenplay from Lost writer Damon Lindelof and a cast of stars including Kathryn Hahn and Keegan-Michael Key, Tomorrowland is sure to be intriguing. Check out the trailer below. --Meghan DeMaria
