Distribution company Cineverse has announced the wacky Chinese sci-fi film Escape From The 21st Century will be released in select US theaters next month.
Long long ago (well, somewhere around 1999), in a galaxy far far away, three teenagers discovered they had the power to travel back and forth through time by sneezing. This accidental act teleports them to 2019, where they discover their world — Planet K — has been conquered by a brutal dictator. When they return, they try to warn everyone, but find no one will listen. It turns out saving the future will be entirely up to them, and their physical abilities — assuming they can find a trainer who doesn’t think they’re complete losers.
Escape From The 21st Century stars Ruoyun Zhang, Chuxi Zhong, Yang Song, Chenhao Li, Xiaoliang Wu, Yanmanzi Zhu, and Zhengrong Wen. It was written and directed by Li Yang and produced by: HU Lizhou (SCITY FILMS) and WANG Hongwei. In addition to the trailer, Cineverse has released a bonus clip from the movie, which you can view below. Watch the teens unleash their fury in a fast-cut montage!
Escape From The 21st Century comes to our century June 9.
Escape From The 21st Century follows three friends who discover they have the power to travel back and forth 20 years with a sneeze. However, the future is not as good as they hoped, and they need to take on the responsibility of saving the world.
