T.J. Power Reconnects with Alien Pal in 'Allen' Sci-Fi Comedy Trailer

"Allen did come halfway across the galaxy just to hang out with you!" "Uh, yeah he did." Netflix revealed their funny official trailer for the Australia sci-fi comedy titled simply Allen, made by the filmmakers Daley Pearson & Jeffrey Walker. Very similar to that other wacky alien friend movie Paul with Simon Pegg & Nick Frost from 2011 but with a few of its own quirks. 20 years after his original encounter with an alien, Petey never moved on. Now his old friend has returned to Earth, and the reason why is kind of complicated — and unexpected. What is he up to on our planet this time? Allen stars T.J. Power, Charlotte Nicdao, Josh Helman, Emily Barclay, and Benedict Hardie. Petey's childhood best friend, a little alien named Allen, vanished without any goodbye. Two decades later, Allen returns with a secret that could change the world, forcing Petey to finally grow up & help save it. This is made by Brisbane-based Ludo Studio, the same team behind Bluey and Thou Shalt Not Steal; Allen marks the studio’s first locally made live-action feature film for Netflix with filming across Queensland, including in Brisbane and the Gold Coast. This looks like it has a big twist and gets dark – I'm very intrigued to watch & see what they've been cooking up with the project. ?  // Continue Reading ›
