Steven Spielberg? Disney? Roald Dahl? This sounds like one heck of a movie - and by the looks of this teaser trailer, it just might be.
You know the story - little girl discovers the world of giants after meeting one catching dreams in the middle of the night - but how are these guys pitching it? Here's the official synopsis:
"The BFG (Mark Rylance), while a giant himself, is a Big Friendly Giant and nothing like the other inhabitants of Giant Country. Standing 24-feet tall with enormous ears and a keen sense of smell, he is endearingly dim-witted and keeps to himself for the most part.
"Giants like Bloodbottler (Bill Hader) and Fleshlumpeater (Jemaine Clement) on the other hand, are twice as big and at least twice as scary and have been known to eat humans, while the BFG prefers Snozzcumber and Frobscottle.
"Upon her arrival in Giant Country, Sophie, a precocious 10-year-old girl from London, is initially frightened of the mysterious giant who has brought her to his cave, but soon comes to realise that the BFG is actually quite gentle and charming, and, having never met a giant before, has many questions.
"The BFG brings Sophie to Dream Country where he collects dreams and sends them to children, teaching her all about the magic and mystery of dreams. Having both been on their own in the world up until now, their affection for one another quickly grows. But Sophie's presence in Giant Country has attracted the unwanted attention of the other giants, who have become increasingly more bothersome.
What to Read Next
"Sophie and the BFG soon depart for London to see the Queen (Penelope Wilton) and warn her of the precarious giant situation, but they must first convince the Queen and her maid, Mary (Rebecca Hall), that giants do indeed exist. Together, they come up with a plan to get rid of the giants once and for all."
So... that explains that then! But what of the teaser trailer? Well, it's definitely got an emphasis on the teaser side of things, and here's to that.
As for where you might know the man playing The BFG from - that's Mark Rylance - well, you can check him out in Spielberg's most recent film, Bridge Of Spies, where he plays, um, a spy.
The BFG opens in UK cinemas on July 22, 2016 (the centenary of Dahl's birth, no less).
