A Charming Beginning
In the “Not Alone” trailer, Timothée Chalamet’s character, Joe, an introverted rocket mechanic, embarks on his day in a serene neighborhood adorned with vibrant houses.

A Meet-Cute with a Twist
Joe’s day changes remarkably when he encounters Selena Gomez’s character, Fran, an astro-botanist. Their interaction is sparked by Joe’s endearing clumsiness, leading to a blush-inducing meet-cute. Fran’s playful remark on his rosy cheeks sets a lighthearted tone for their blossoming connection. “You want some lunch, with, uh, with me?” Joe nervously asks, to which Fran playfully counters with a suggestion for dinner, hinting at their budding chemistry.
Alien Invasion and Unexpected Allies
Just as sparks fly between Joe and Fran, chaos ensues when a rocketship unexpectedly returns to Earth carrying three charming and whimsical aliens named Dunk, Welly, and Shirm. Voiced by British talents Rob Brydon, Diane Morgan, and Jamie Demetriou, these animated aliens introduce a new layer of intrigue and amusement. The trailer also highlights additional star power with cast members including Brett Goldstein, Allison Janney, and Lamorne Morris, promising a diverse array of characters.
