Fans of gritty revenge thrillers and post-apocalyptic wastelands will be frothing at the mouth for THE ROVER, from ANIMAL KINGDOM director David Michod. The film, starring a grizzled Guy Pearce and Robert Pattinson, was picked up last year by A24, which plans to release it this summer.

The first official teaser trailer for the flick has been unleashed, and you can see it below. Additionally, we have a new image of Peace to share with you at the top of the page.

THE ROVER is set in a world ten years following the collapse of the western economic system, where Australia’s mineral resources have drawn the desperados and dangerous to its shores. With society in decline, the rule of law has disintegrated and life is cheap. The film follows hardened loner Eric (Pearce), who travels the desolate towns and roads of the Australian outback. When a gang of thieves steals his car they leave behind the wounded Rey (Pattinson) in their wake. Forcing Rey to help track the gang, Eric will go to any lengths to take back the one thing that matters to him.
