Will-Smith-and-Jaden-Smith-in-After-EarthAfter Earth marks M. Night Shyamalan’s return to blockbuster territory this year, bringing to the big screen two of the most famous father-and-son actors in recent memory.

Will Smith and Jaden Smith star as on-screen father and son Cypher and Kitai Raige in Shyamalan’s anticipated sci-fi/action movie, and its June release date is very much on the horizon now for Sony.

The latest trailer featured more than enough footage to have our interest piqued. And now the studio have debuted the first TV spot, giving us a look at Will and Jaden in the terrain Earth has become.

After Earth is set 1000 years after cataclysmic events forced humanity’s escape from Earth, Nova Prime has become mankind’s new home. Legendary General Cypher Raige (Will Smith) returns from an extended tour of duty to his estranged family, ready to be a father to his 13-year-old son, Kitai (Jaden Smith). When an asteroid storm damages Cypher and Kitai’s craft, they crash-land on a now unfamiliar and dangerous Earth. As his father lies dying in the cockpit, Kitai must trek across the hostile terrain to recover their rescue beacon. His whole life, Kitai has wanted nothing more than to be a soldier like his father. Today, he gets his chance.

Isabelle Fuhrman, Zoë Kravitz, and Sophie Okonedo complete the cast nicely, with Will and Jaden looking to be front and centre pretty much throughout.

Shyamalan is directing from a script he co-wrote with Gary Whitta (The Book of Eli), with the Oscar-nominated Stephen Gaghan (Traffic) hired to polish the script.

After Earth will be released on June 7th in the US and UK, and that’s definitely a release date you’ll want to commit to memory. It promises to be one of the best blockbusters of the year.
