Denis Villeneuve doesn’t waste much narrative in “Arrival” in getting to the part where aliens come to Earth. In fact, it’s within moments of the film starting that the world is grappling with sudden, mysterious objects hovering all over the world. Governments are freaked, the public is spooked, and the military goes on high alert. And you can imagine how that must feel for a linguist and mathematician suddenly tasked with finding out why they’re here.

Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner star in upcoming sci-fi film which is already heading into its release next month with strong buzz from festival appearances in Venice and Toronto. These two new clips show two very different moments in the film, the first with Adams and Renner’s characters first landing at the military compound that’s been established near one of the alien pods. And other, slightly more spoilery one, sees a sudden change in behavior from the visitors.
“Arrival” opens on November 11th.
