James Gray, the visually decadent director of The Immigrant, is behind the camera for the pic, which finds Charlie Hunnam (Sons of AnarchyPacific Rim) taking on the plum role of Percy Fawcett, a “conscripted soldier and born explorer who disappeared in the 1920s while searching for a mythical city in the Amazon jungles of Brazil that he believed he discovered on a prior expedition.”

Robert Pattinson, Sienna Miller, and Tom Holland all co-star in the award-tipped movie, which boasts some jaw-dropping cinematography by the acclaimed Darius Khondji. Pattinson is playing Fawcett’s partner in exploration, Henry Costin, while Miller is taking on the part of his long-suffering wife, Nina Fawcett. Holland, meanwhile, will portray Fawcett’s son, Jack, who accompanies him into the Amazon.

Angus Macfayden, Daniel Huttlestone, and Ian McDiarmid are also on board in smaller roles.

In addition to the trailer, Holland recently posted a shot from the film to his Instagram, highlighting Jack and Percy Fawcett in a bit of a bind, surrounded by potentially cannibalistic tribespeople:
