'Don't Look Up' teaser introduces a star-studded cast led by Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence
Watch Next

Don't Look Up, directed by Adam McKay (The Big Short, Vice), features a truly stacked cast. Somehow, McKay has assembled Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence, Rob Morgan, Meryl Streep, Jonah Hill, Cate Blanchett, and Tyler Perry in the same movie. And that's just the tip of the star-studded iceberg.

What are all these actors doing in this film? Oh, just trying to prevent the apocalypse. When two low-level astronomers (DiCaprio and Lawrence) discover a comet on a collision course with Earth, they go on a media tour to warn all of mankind. To their surprise, no one - not even the President of the United States (Streep) - seems to care that armageddon is only six months away.

Don't Look Up also stars Mark Rylance, Ron Perlman, Timothée Chalamet, Ariana Grande, Scott Mescudi (aka Kid Cudi), Himesh Patel, Melanie Lynskey, Michael Chiklis and Tomer Sisley.

Don't Look Up is in select theaters Dec. 10, and on Netflix Dec. 24.
