New ‘Annihilation’ Trailer: The Stakes Are High for Natalie Portman, Jennifer Jason Leigh (Video)

Paramount Pictures has released a new trailer for “Annihilation,” in which it becomes more clear why Natalie Portman is a part of a team that needs to explore an unknown environmental disaster zone.

In the trailer, we see Lena the Biologist (Portman) interact with her husband, played by Oscar Isaac, who goes on an expedition and never returns. Lena is then summoned by the Psychologist (Jennifer Jason Leigh) to go on a mission into Area X.

“We sent in drones and people, but nothing comes back,” the Psychologist tells Lena.
