The first trailer for Netflix’s Atlas turns Jennifer Lopez into a mech pilot

Set in a wild future where humanity’s begun using massive AI-powered robots to wage war, Atlas tells the story of how data analyst Atlas Shepherd (Jennifer Lopez) is forced to work with a renegade machine to save the Earth. Despite the mechs’ widespread use throughout the world, Shepherd cannot shake her deep distrust for the thinking machines, which appear to be designed to operate autonomously or under the control of a human pilot.

But when Shepherd’s tapped to become part of a covert mission to take out a rogue mech, she finds herself thrust into danger that only a machine can protect her from. Though Atlas’ new trailer makes it hard to get a sense of the film’s plot or scope, it’s clear that Peyton and cinematographer John Schwartzman are going for an epic vibe judging from shots of Atlas plummeting to the ground in her robot from an exploding ship.

It also looks like we’ll be seeing Sterling K. Brown and Simu Liu chewing up scenery when they’re not busy getting in on the action themselves. But what’s really going to make or break Atlas when it premieres on May 24th is probably going to be the amount of time the movie spends just letting its robots do sick tricks for us all to ogle.
