Disney drops fantastical 'Artemis Fowl' movie teaser
Watch Next

Disney is making the 2001 novel Artemis Fowl into a movie and honestly it's surprising that it took this long considering Hollywood's rapacious appetite for adapting popular books into films.

Artemis Fowl's first teaser trailer gives us quick glimpses at the fantastical world, including the titular criminal boy himself, the fairy he kidnaps for ransom money, and some of the expansive underground dwellings that are hidden away from most of the human race. To add to the somber vibe of the movie, we've got some nice Radiohead music to go along with it.

Artemis Fowl lands in theaters on Aug. 9, 2019.
