The first trailer for Not Alone, Illumination‘s next film starring Timothée Chalamet and Selena Gomez, has been released. The film was announced at the Annecy Animation Festival last week.
Not Alone’s synopsis reads, “When Joe and Fran are brought together to prepare for the inaugural launch of this revolutionary rocket, there are immediate sparks, but neither is particularly adept at romance. Life becomes more complicated when three aliens — tiny, unruly and adorable — take refuge in Joe’s home. Dunk, Welly and Shirm are on the interplanetary run from a zealous-yet-inept officer of the law named Zandro. The aliens determine that Fran’s rocket could provide their means of getting back home to safety.”

What do we see in the Not Alone trailer?
The trailer opens by introducing Joe, voiced by Chalamet, an introverted rocket mechanic working on a spacecraft ahead of a seemingly critical mission. Joe has a crush on Fran, an astro-botanist voiced by Gomez who works alongside him. After a cute exchange, Joe gathers the courage to ask out Fran on a date, to which she says yes. Following this, the rocket launches into space but later returns carrying three tiny alien visitors. The trailer ends with Joe meeting the aliens, who unsuccessfully try to play dead in front of him.
Set to Space Oddity by David Bowie, the trailer doesn’t reveal much of the real plot of the film, which will deal with the aftermath of the aliens’ arrival. The aliens are voiced by British comedians Rob Brydon, Diane Morgan, and Jamie Demetriou.
Not Alone stars a voice cast that includes Timothée Chalamet, Selena Gomez, Brett Goldstein, Rob Brydon, Jamie Demetriou, Diane Morgan, Allison Janney, and Lamorne Morris. The film is directed by Eric Guillon, Claire Dodgson, and Jonathan Del Val. The film is produced by Chris Meledandri, while Joy Poirel, Richard Curtis, and David Distenfeld serve as executive producers.
Not Alone is currently scheduled for release on April 16, 2027. Before then, Illumination will release Minions & Monsters, which has already received positive early reviews.
