Warner Bros. has finally released the first full-length trailer for “Transcendence,” starring Morgan Freeman.

Apple Trailers describes the film as follows:

“Dr. Will Caster is the foremost researcher in the field of Artificial Intelligence, working to create a sentient machine that combines the collective intelligence of everything ever known with the full range of human emotions. His highly controversial experiments have made him famous, but they have also made him the prime target of anti-technology extremists who will do whatever it takes to stop him. However, in their attempt to destroy Will, they inadvertently become the catalyst for him to succeed—to be a participant in his own transcendence. For his wife Evelyn and friend Max, both fellow researchers, the question is not if they can… but if they should. Their worst fears are realized as Will’s thirst for knowledge evolves into a seemingly omnipresent quest for power—to what end is unknown. The only thing that is becoming terrifyingly clear is there may be no way to stop.”

The film was directed by longtime Christopher Nolan collaborator Wally Pfister, with a script penned by Jack Paglen.  Joining Freeman on the cast, is Johnny Depp, Paul Bettany, Rebecca Hall, Kate Mara, Cillian Murphy, and Clifton Collins Jr.

Warner Bros. has given “Transcendence” an April 2014 release date. In the meantime watch the trailer in the video player below.
