\n\tThe final trailer for the Ridley Scott<\/a>-directed film adaptation of Peter Heller\u2019s The Dog Stars<\/a> is here.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe dystopian movie arrives in theaters August 28.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the clip, Jacob Elordi<\/a>\u2019s pilot Hig reminisces about before the world ended, when he enjoyed the simple pleasures of life like kissing his wife and playing with his dog.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe world that was doesn\u2019t exist,\u201d Josh Brolin<\/a>\u2019s voice chimes in over a shot of a bunch of wild dogs running around in front of Denver City Hall. \u201cHere it\u2019s just us, trying to hold onto what was.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBrolin plays Bangley, a military survivalist who has established a homestead to survive the end of the world.<\/p>\n

\n\tHeller\u2019s thriller novel tells a story of a post-apocalyptic community in which survival is an instinct, but humanity is a choice. The only thing left to fear is \u201csurvivors\u201d who look like a mix of zombies and cordyceps-infected clickers in The Last of Us. Dark veins pop out of their faces, signaling some kind of infection, reminiscent of the flare in The Maze Runner movies. Weapons, guns, night vision goggles and more are must-have tools. Brolin\u2019s character even wears dark paint on his face to hide in the dark at one point.<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter he hears a voice on the radio, Hig finds Margaret Qualley\u2019s Cima. An immediate level of trust is established. But Guy Pearce<\/a>\u2019s character doesn\u2019t trust Hig because \u201che\u2019s an unknown\u201d and \u201cwe have rules about how to deal with unknowns.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBenedict Wong and Allison Janney also star in the film.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe screenplay is by Mark L. Smith, based upon Heller\u2019s novel. Producers are Ridley Scott, p.g.a., Michael Pruss, p.g.a., Mark L. Smith, and Cliff Roberts, p.g.a., with Lily Brooks-Dalton, Brandon Scott Smith, Peter Heller, Aidan Elliott serving as executive producers.<\/p>\n
