Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt Look Very Serious and Space-y in 'Passengers'

Those spacesuits though.

We've been hearing about Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt's sci-fi drama, Passengers, for a year and a half and now, after months and months of waiting, the first pictures from the film have finally been released.

Until now, we knew very little about the movie, aside from the cast and a brief description of the plot. In Passengers, Lawrence and Pratt play the only two people awake on a space craft, where 5,000 other passengers are sleeping in suspended animation—but then the ship starts to malfunction (because of course it does) and they have to save the day, the 5,000 sleeping people and themselves.

Entertainment Weekly premiered two images from the upcoming film, and we're more excited than ever to see it. TBH, they had us at Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt, but these new pictures have us very intrigued.

In the first, Pratt and Lawrence look through an opening of some kind. What are they staring at? We can't be sure, but we definitely want to find out.

The second image gives us a glimpse of the spaceship—and of Chris Pratt in full space gear. We can almost see the chemistry between Lawrence and Pratt in this picture.

"I honestly couldn't ask for a better cast. They're so great together, and both of them are so hard-working. They take the characters so seriously and bring so much to the roles with charm and intelligence and charisma," director Morten Tyldum told Entertainment Weekly. "They really went for it and it is phenomenal to watch."

We believe that, but we'll have to wait until Passengers opens on Dec. 21 to watch for ourselves.
