Good Afternoon Lovelies, 

Now before I begin I want to just make it clear that this film in no way has anything to do with Gary Oldman’s The Darkest Hour. It is in fact very different! Starring Amandla Stenberg, The Darkest Minds, based on the best-selling books, is a dark story of a group of teens who discover they have new abilities.

Stenberg plays Ruby, one of the most powerful teens, who escapes from the camp she is forced to live with, alongside a group of runaways in hopes of finding a safe place to live. Yet what they find it something entirely different, as the adults who have the most power have betrayed them, calling them to start their own revolution to gain back control.

Directed by Jennifer Yuh Nelson, the film also stars Mandy Moore, Gwendoline Christie, Harris Dickinson, Skylan Brooks, Miya Cech and Patrick Gibson and will be out on the 10th August this year.

Check out the first trailer for it below lovelies:
