Vertical Entertainment dropped the trailer for The Pod Generation, a sci-fi romantic comedy starring Emilia Clarke and Chiwetel Ejiofor. The film is slated to arrive in theaters on August 11.
“Set in the very near future world where AI is all the rage and technology has trumped nature in nearly every aspect of life,” reads the synopsis. “The film follows Rachel (Clarke) and Alvy (Ejiofor), a New York couple who are ready to start a family. As a rising tech company executive, Rachel lands a coveted spot at the Womb Center, which offers couples the opportunity to share pregnancy on a more equal footing by way of mobile, artificial wombs, or pods. Alvy, a botanist and devoted purist about the natural environment, has doubts, but his love for Rachel prompts him to take a leap of faith. And so, begins the wild ride on their tech-paved path to parenthood.”
