International trailer for Tomorrowland sheds light on Disneys mysterious sci-fi film

Most movie trailers tend to recycle the same footage over and over again, so its usually worth noting when a preview offers up a significant amount of fresh footage for an upcoming film especially when the project is as shrouded in mystery as Disneys sci-fi adventureTomorrowland.

A new, international trailer forTomorrowlanddebuted online this week, and the brief preview of the film is surprisingly packed with scenes that didnt appear in any of the previous teasersfor the film. More importantly, however, is that the new scenes provide quite a bit of context for the film and its fantastic sci-fi premise.

While we wont go intotoo much detail about what happens in the trailer (so as to avoid spoilers for those who want to preserve the mystery), the footagedoes hint that the film will be somewhat self-aware, with the Disney theme parks and specifically, the Tomorrowland attraction that inspired the film playing a role in the story. The trailer even features a mention of Walt Disney himself.
