VALERIAN AND THE CITY OF A THOUSAND PLANETS is
the visually spectacular new adventure film from Luc Besson, the
legendary director of The Professional, The Fifth Element and Lucy,
based on the ground-breaking comic book series which inspired a
generation of artists, writers and filmmakers.
In the 28th century, Valerian (Dane DeHaan) and Laureline
(Cara Delevingne) are a team of special operatives charged with
maintaining order throughout the human territories. Under assignment
from the Minister of Defense, the two embark on a mission to the
astonishing city of Alpha-an ever-expanding metropolis where species
from all over the universe have converged over centuries to share
knowledge, intelligence and cultures with each other. There is a mystery
at the center of Alpha, a dark force which threatens the peaceful
existence of the City of a Thousand Planets, and Valerian and Laureline
must race to identify the marauding menace and safeguard not just Alpha,
but the future of the universe.
