Adapted once more by Fault scribes Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber (the two wordsmiths also behind The Spectacular Now), it traces the story of Quentin (Fault star Nat Wolff) and Margo (Cara Delevingne). He falls madly in love with her after an adventurous romp around their city during their last year of high school, but the next morning, Margo disappears, leaving a trail of clues for Quentin to decipher in order to find her.

Robot & Frank director Jake Schreier steers this latest Green story away from the author’s ‘teen weepie’ tag and more toward teen mystery. Audiences might be hoping for Fault In Our Stars: Part Two, but on the basis of this first trailer, Paper Towns is in a world of its own. And that’s definitely a good thing.

Co-starring Justice Smith, Austin Abrams, Halston Sage, Jaz Sinclair, Cara Buono Paper Towns opens on July 24.
