A new international trailer for Rian Johnson‘s Looper has appeared online and it takes what we know about time travel and builds upon it with a very expansive story. Joseph Gordon-Levitt stars as a hit-man hired to kill targets sent from the future to his own timeline.

He takes the job in stride and gets paid very well. But all that comes apart when his future self is a target whom he fails to kill, forcing him to go on the run to kill his target and stay out of his employers’ sights.

Check out the trailer below.
