5. Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (July 21, 2017)
Cast: Dane DeHaan, Rihanna, Cara Delevingne, Clive Owen, Ethan Hawke
Director: Luc Besson
Synopsis: The movie is based on the popular French sci-fi comic titled, “Valerian and Laureline.” When it comes to director Besson, he has a mixed resume but he has some best hits to his credit including some modern action classics such as “The Fifth Element” and “Leon: The Professional.” Besson has already said that it was his dream to make film on this French comic and the recently released footage looks quite impressive.
In this flick, DeHaan plays a time-traveling agent named Valerian who has been ordered to investigate a galactic empire. In the mission, he is accompanied by Laureline (Delvingne). Although the leading pair is not famous enough to draw crowds, the footage has revealed some impressive stuff from Valerian.
