The War Of The Worlds, the H.G. Wells classic sci-fi adaptation by Peter Harness, directed by Craig Viveiros and starring Eleanor Tomlinson, Rafe Spall, Robert Carlyle and Rupert Graves will be arriving this autumn on BBC One, and a trailer has finally been released.

Set in Edwardian England, this new adaptation of H.G. Wells’ seminal tale – described by the BBC as  “the first alien invasion story in literature” – follows George (Rafe Spall) and his partner Amy (Eleanor Tomlinson) as they attempt to defy society and start a life together.  Rupert Graves is Frederick, George’s elder brother, and Robert Carlyle plays Ogilvy, an astronomer and scientist. The War of the Worlds tells their story as they face the escalating terror of an alien invasion, fighting for their lives against an enemy beyond their comprehension.
