Focus Features' second trailer for Captive State dives deeper into the state of life in post-extraterrestrial invasion Chicago in Rupert Wyatt's sci-fi drama-thriller. The film picks up ten years after aliens have begun their occupation of earth, giving rise to a world where some humans continue to rebel against the planet's occupants - even as others collaborate with humanity's new overlords. The film's cast includes big names like John Goodman and Vera Farmiga, as well as Moonlight and The Equalizer 2 actor Ashton Sanders.
Wyatt is far from a stranger to the sci-fi genre himself, having previously directed 2011's Rise of the Planet of the Apes. The filmmaker thereafter directed the Mark Wahlberg drama The Gambler (which Goodman also starred in) and helmed key episodes of the since-canceled TV series TURN and The Exorcist, in addition to being attached to direct Fox's X-Men spinoff Gambit a few years back. Currently, however, Wyatt is in the midst of making a big return to the sci-fi genre, between Captive State and his involvement as a producer/director on Showtime's Halo TV series.

The second Captive State trailer is now online, well ahead of the film's release next spring. Whereas the first Captive State teaser trailer was more of an introduction to the movie's premise than anything else, this new preview further explores the film's primary setting, e.g. a Chicago neighborhood under alien occupation. Check it out in the space below.
