The first trailer for your latest must-see movie has arrived.

Will Smith stars in Collateral Beauty, a star-studded drama that focuses on the Oscar-nominated actor as a once-successful business man faced with the tragic loss of his young daughter. Smith's character is left to pick up the pieces, and as his close friend (played by Kate Winslet) describes it, "He used to love life. Now he hates it." 

He mourns her passing by writing letters to abstract ideas such as love, time and death, aspects of life he narrates in the trailer, "are the three things that connect every single human being on earth," continuing, "We long for love, we wish we had more time and we fear death."

Smith then begins receiving surprise visits from the ideas themselves, this time in the form of Helen Mirren as death, Keira Knightley as love and Jacob Latimore as time. 

"I saw you in her eyes when she called me daddy and you betrayed me," Will's character says to Knightley's during their emotional encounter. 

Collateral Beauty, also starring Edward Norton, Michael Peña and Naomie Harris hits theaters just in time for the holidays on December 16.
