From the filmmakers of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, Universal Pictures presents 'Mortal Engines' and it's a sight to behold.

Watch the first official trailer here:

It stars Robert Sheehan (Misfits) as Tom Natsworthy , and Hera Hilmar (Da Vinci's Demons) as Hester Shaw, and is set thousands of years after civilization was destroyed by a cataclysmic event.

Humankind has adapted and a new way of living has evolved. Gigantic moving cities now roam the Earth, ruthlessly preying upon smaller traction towns.

Peter Jackson is on board as a producer and screenwriter, re-teaming with Hobbit screenwriters Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyen.

If that all excites you enough the date you have to put in your diary is 14th December, as that's when it graces our screens. We can't wait.
