It\u2019s been a while since we had a really satisfying live-action feature focused on people piloting futuristic robots, but the first trailer for Netflix\u2019s Atlas from director Brad Peyton makes it seem like it could be the mech genre\u2019s next big splash.<\/p>\n<p>Set in a wild future where humanity\u2019s begun using massive AI-powered robots to wage war, Atlas tells the story of how data analyst Atlas Shepherd (Jennifer Lopez) is forced to work with a renegade machine to save the Earth. Despite the mechs\u2019 widespread use throughout the world, Shepherd cannot shake her deep distrust for the thinking machines, which appear to be designed to operate autonomously or under the control of a human pilot. But when Shepherd\u2019s tapped to become part of a covert mission to take out a rogue mech, she finds herself thrust into danger that only a machine can protect her from. Though Atlas\u2019 new trailer makes it hard to get a sense of the film\u2019s plot or scope, it\u2019s clear that Peyton and cinematographer John Schwartzman are going for an epic vibe judging from shots of Atlas plummeting to the ground in her robot from an exploding ship.<\/p>\n<p>It also looks like we\u2019ll be seeing Sterling K. Brown and Simu Liu chewing up scenery when they\u2019re not busy getting in on the action themselves. But what\u2019s really going to make or break Atlas when it premieres on May 24th is probably going to be the amount of time the movie spends just letting its robots do sick tricks for us all to ogle.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/212443307417066979\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog_hollywood\/article2957_shop.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding -bottom: 5px; padding-top: 5px;\" align=\"center\"><strong>Related Videos<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_21099\"  width=\"1140\" height=\"641\"  data-origwidth=\"1140\" data-origheight=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/D_uFgmH_kfQ?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&cc_load_policy=0&cc_lang_pref=&iv_load_policy=1&loop=0&rel=1&fs=1&playsinline=0&autohide=2&theme=dark&color=red&controls=1&disablekb=0&\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"twitter-timeline\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JLo?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">Tweets by JLo<\/a> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Netflix\u2019s Atlas from director Brad Peyton pits humanity against killer mechs in its explosive first trailer.
