The first trailer for The Call of the Wild was released by 20th Century Fox. The adaptation of the beloved novel Jack London follows Buck, who in the 1890s was uprooted to the Alaskan Yukon and began working on a sled dog mail delivery team.

Harrison Ford seems to be so right in this position. It's grizzled and enjoyable and you almost wonder why more of Ford's outdoor image hasn't been trying to take advantage of it.

Sure, his co-star (and perhaps the lead of the movie) is a CGI puppy, but who cares? Can you tell me that being Ford's best friends with a pet is a movie you don't want to watch? Don't be stupid. We all want this film to be seen. Buck's a good dog (although he's a CGI).

Check out The Call of the Wild trailer below. The film opens February 21, 2020 and also stars Dan Stevens, Omar Sy, Karen Gillan, Bradley Whitford, and Colin Woodell.



Here’s the official synopsis for The Call of the Wild:

Adapted from the beloved literary classic, 20th Century Fox’s THE CALL OF THE WILD vividly brings to the screen the story of Buck, a big-hearted dog whose blissful domestic life is turned upside down when he is suddenly uprooted from his California home and transplanted to the exotic wilds of the Alaskan Yukon during the Gold Rush of the 1890s. As the newest rookie on a mail delivery dog sled team–and later its leader–Buck experiences the adventure of a lifetime, ultimately finding his true place in the world and becoming his own master.

As a live-action/animation hybrid, THE CALL OF THE WILD employs cutting edge visual effects and animation technology in order to render the animals in the film as fully photorealistic–and emotionally authentic–characters. Directed by Chris Sanders from a screenplay by Michael Green, based on the novel by Jack London, the film was produced by Erwin Stoff, with Diana Pokorny serving as executive producer and Ryan Stafford as co-producer and visual effects producer. THE CALL OF THE WILD stars Harrison Ford, Dan Stevens, Omar Sy, Karen Gillan, Bradley Whitford and Colin Woodell.
