We’ve seen a couple of teasers already for the sequel to Gareth Edwards’ debut and there’s a clear shift in focus, if not in tone.

One of the most impressive elements of the first film was the world Edwards created; a world much like our own, tangibly altered by an alien invasion unlike any we’d seen before.

This is a very different set up to Edwards’ film with almost a decade gone since the events of the first film and society is falling apart. Humankind is being threatened by the advancing ambitions of the titular invaders and humankind is turning to ever more desperate means to save themselves.

Tom Green takes the directing reins with Edwards wearing his Exec-producer trousers. This new trailer gives a good look at what to expect.
