A new trailer for Adam McKay's Don't Look Up leaked during the Tokyo Olympic Games, revealing a star-studded cast worried about the end of the world. The Netflix release remains one of the year's most anticipated movies, thanks mainly to its outstanding ensemble led by Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence. In the film, DiCaprio and Lawrence play two astronomers tasked with going on a globetrotting press tour to warn of a catastrophic comet headed straight for Earth.
Fans got their first look at the black comedy in January when Netflix teased their 2021 movie slate. Though it didn't offer much, the clip showed DiCaprio and Lawrence exchanging nervous glances and hesitantly exiting what appears to be a military aircraft, likely marking the start of their apocalyptic media tour. The placement of the Don't Look Up clip toward the end of the 27-movie montage indicates Netflix wanted to tease the best for last, and newly leaked footage shows just how comical DiCaprio and Lawrence's impossible task will become.
Lights Camera Barstool tweeted a new Don't Look Up teaser that aired during the Tokyo Olympics in what appears to be a leak since the footage is currently unavailable in an official format elsewhere. The video begins with DiCaprio's astronomer character Dr. Randall Mindy enduring a panic attack in front of a bathroom mirror before cutting to a sit-down in the Oval Office with Lawrence, Jonah Hill, and Meryl Streep, playing President Janie Orlean.

It can't be underestimated just how impressive Don't Look Up's parade of Hollywood talent is. In addition to Hill and Streep, the supporting players include Cate Blanchett, Timothée Chalamet, Chris Evans, Rob Morgan, Ariana Grande, and Tyler Perry, among many others. The movie runs neck and neck with Dune for the most unbelievable cast of 2021 and the newest footage showing just how game the actors are for McKay's unique hybrid of social commentary and absurd humor.
While the Don't Look Up teaser will undoubtedly be available online soon enough, Olympics viewers who saw it firsthand in person can now humorously brag to their friends about how they were there when it happened. As with The Big Short, McKay is sure to use Don't Look Up to tackle burgeoning sociopolitical issues, with climate change under the microscope in this case, while also balancing out the heavy-handed commentary with riotous humor.
