New trailer for Alex Garland’s Ex Machina starring Oscar Isaac

Last Updated on July 22, 2021

Just yesterday we brought you the official one-sheet for Alex Garland’s sci-fi thriller EX MACHINA and today we’re following up with the new domestic trailer. This movie looks so very good, there’s nothing better than smart sci-fi.

Caleb Smith (Domhnall Gleeson), a programmer at an internet-search giant, wins a competition to spend a week at the private mountain estate of the company’s brilliant and reclusive CEO, Nathan Bateman (Oscar Isaac).

Upon his arrival, Caleb learns that Nathan has chosen him to be the human component in a Turing Test—charging him with evaluating the capabilities, and ultimately the consciousness, of Nathan’s latest experiment in artificial intelligence. That experiment is Ava (Alicia Vikander), a breathtaking A.I. whose emotional intelligence proves more sophisticated––and more deceptive––than the two men could have imagined.

EX MACHINA hits theaters on April 10th. It’ll premiere at SXSW on March 14th.
