Warner Bros. has released a brand new trailer for “Interstellar,” the latest film from director Christopher Nolan, based on script by Chris and Jonathan Nolan. It’s more beautiful and touching than previously released previews we’ve seen so far, while also offering an idea of its huge scope.

For the time being, the trailer is only available on the official Interstellar website: the first screen prompts you to introduce the access code. Don’t freak out, it’s not limited to certain areas or anything of the kind.

Type in “7201969,” which stands for July 20, 1969, the date of the first Moon landing, and you’re good to go.

This is the trailer that premiered at Comic-Con 2014 in San Diego over the weekend, when Nolan and his leading man Matthew McConaughey made their debut at the convention. It’s just as described by those in attendance: very emotional, and in the second part, absolutely beautiful.

Without giving away too much of the plot (Nolan is famous for that, by the way), the trailer shows McConaughey’s character, Cooper, a pilot, contemplate the idea of leaving Earth (and his family behind), to join a team whose goal is to find another habitable planet.

Anne Hathaway plays Cooper’s co-pilot and their journey through space is detailed in the second half of the trailer. This is also when we’re being given an idea of just how big and beautiful this film will be.

“Interstellar” also stars Michael Caine, Jessica Chastain, Mackenzie Foy, Casey Affleck, Ellen Burstyn, and John Lithgow, and will be out in theaters in November this year.
