‘Don’t Look Up’: Netflix releases the first sequel to a new film

“Don’t Look Up” will hit Netflix sooner than you think.

Jennifer Lawrence, Leonardo DiCaprio and the rest of the star-studded cast are still filming “Don’t Look Up” in Boston and other nearby cities, but the Adam McKay comedy will make its debut later this year, and Netflix has already released the first official shooting of the film.

A trailer posted by Netflix highlighting all the original films that will be released in 2021 features a short scene from “Don’t Look Up”, which stars DiCaprio and Lawrence as two low-level astronomers who must embark on a major media tour to warn the world about an approaching comet that will destroy the planet.

In the short film without dialogues, DiCaprio and Lawrence descend from an airplane to an airport runway while uniformed personnel pass in the background.

So far, “Don’t Look Up” has filmed scenes in Boston, Canton, Chicopee, Fall River, Norton, Salisbury, Weymouth and Worcester. The filmmakers filmed scenes at Union Point in Weymouth, the former location of South Weymouth Naval Air Station, in December.

The streaming giant has not announced a specific release date for “Don’t Look Up”.

Along with DiCaprio and Lawrence, “Don’t Look Up” features Cate Blanchett (“Carol”), Rob Morgan (“Mudbound”), Meryl Streep (“The Iron Lady”), Jonah Hill (“The Wolf of Wall Street” ), Chris Evans (“The Avengers”), Himesh Patel (“Yesterday”), Timothée Chalamet (“Little Women”), Matthew Perry (“Friends”), Tyler Perry (“Gone Girl”), Melanie Lynskey (“Togetherness ”), Ron Perlman (“ Sons of Anarchy ”) Tomer Sisley (“ We are the Millers ”), singer Ariana Grande and rapper Kid Cudi.
