Midnight Special Trailer

Jeff Nichols, who directed indie movies Mud and Take Shelter, takes a stab at sci-fi next year with Midnight Special.  Starring Michael Shannon and Jaeden Lieberher as a father and son on the run from the government because of the son’s supernatural powers, which seem to have a wide range of effects.  Adam Driver, Sam Shephard, Kirsten Dunst and Joel Edgerton co-star and it looks like a really cool, low key sci fi movie that is being compared on a lot sights to the Amblin movies of the 80’s like Close Encounters or ET but with a slightly darker tone than those movies.  It’s out in March of next year and you can check out the trailer below.
