We have to admit, this looks pretty awesome.

New Line Cinema and Warner Bros. just released the first trailer for the upcoming fantasy flick Jack and the Giant Slayer, which shows British thesp Nicholas Hoult gearing up for one heck of an adventure. 

Jennifer Lawrence's 22-year-old beau plays Jack in the modern (and a lot creepier) Jack and the Beanstalk reboot, when he scales to the top of the tale's infamous beanstalk to take on a bunch of giants and save his princess ladylove (Eleanor Tomlinson).

Stanley Tucci and Ewan McGregor also star in the flick, which is set to hit theaters March 1, 2013.
