The director shared a teaser for his long-awaited retro-futurist film on his personal YouTube channel.

The movie boasts a vast cast that includes Adam Driver , Nathalie Emmanuel, Aubrey Plaza, Giancarlo Esposito, Shia LaBeouf, Dustin Hoffman, Jon Voight, and Laurence Fishburne. What it’s about is far harder to quantify: writing to Vanity Fair, the director cited H.G. Wells, the September 11 attacks, and a 63 BC battle between Roman politician Cicero and an insurrectionist named Catiline.

Those who attended an April screening in Los Angeles might have more insight into how the teaser might play into the final film, in which Driver’s character—an architect intent on rebuilding a ruined city—goes up against a corrupt mayor who prefers the status quo. As opposed to explaining the clip, Coppola opted to caption its YouTube release with “an appreciation” of the film from former Variety chief film critic Scott Foundas, who departed the trade pub for Amazon Studios last year.
