Today marks the release of the first teaser trailer for Okja, the sci-fi fantasy film from Oscar-winning director Bong Joon Ho coming to Netflix in June.

Okja follows a young South Korean girl (Seohyun An) living in the heart of the forest with her friend, a monstrous animal, who suddenly goes missing. Tilda Swinton plays the scientist who created the mysterious creature--in the trailer she croaks: "I took nature and science, and synthesized."

Other members of the cast include Jake Gyllenhall, Paul Dano, and Lily Collins. Brad Pitt, Dede Gardner, Jeremy Kleiner, Lewis Taewan Kim, Dooho Choi, Woo-sik Seo and Bong Joon Ho are producers of the film.

"I want to show the beauty that can exist between man and animal, and also the horror between them," said Bong Joon Ho of the film--his first with Netflix.

Take a look at the trailer, below:
