The latest film from writer/director Oliver Stone, Snowden, about the computer analyst whistleblower who leaked classified NSA information to the media in 2013, is slated to hit theaters this Christmas. Joseph Gordon-Levitt will play the titular role, with Nick Cage, Shailene Woodley, and Timothy Olyphant supporting. Zachary Quinto is cast as journalist Glenn Greenwald.

The first teaser trailer dropped today. No actual clips from the film made the teaser's cut, but it does what a teaser is supposed to do and build up some buzz ahead of the release. Oliver Stone's got a career speckled with weird and sometimes historically inaccurate biopics, but at least the guy knows how to make a wildly entertaining movie. Watch the teaser above.
