The trailer for next year's Alpha gives us our first taste of the action-packed tale of a human building a powerful bond with a wolf tens of thousands of years ago.
Beyond his part in Terry Gilliam's Twelve Monkeys, Brad Pitt has never really explored much of the science-fiction. It's a bit strange when you consider how many other genre films he's made over the course of his career as an actor and a producer - but the good news is that it's an area in which the famed actor is working to expand.
Director Martin Campbell's venture into the superhero genre didn't exactly pan out, as 2011's Green Lantern was both a critical and box office disaster, but hopefully he will have a bit more luck with his next feature film venture. The British filmmaker is now attached to direct Alpha, a Navy SEAL thriller based on a script that was most recently rewritten by screenwriter Scott Frank.
