Sci-fi films often explore the subject of machines becoming sentient and therefore endangering the future of the human race. But what if the a scientist put himself into a machine to speed up this process? In Wally Pfister's Transcendence, we get to explore this concept with Johnny Depp in the role of the scientist. Paul Bettany, Cillian Murphy, Rebecca Hall, and Morgan Freeman also star.

Check out this brand new teaser trailer for Transcendence right here and let us know what you think of it in the comments section below:

Here is a synopsis of the movie, opening April 18, 2014:

Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) is the foremost researcher in the field of Artificial Intelligence, working to create a sentient machine that combines the collective intelligence of everything ever known with the full range of human emotions. His highly controversial experiments have made him famous, but they have also made him the prime target of anti-technology extremists who will do whatever it takes to stop him. However, in their attempt to destroy Will, they inadvertently become the catalyst for him to succeed-to be a participant in his own transcendence. For his wife Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) and best friend Max Waters (Paul Bettany), both fellow researchers, the question is not if they can...but if they should. Their worst fears are realized as Will's thirst for knowledge evolves into a seemingly omnipresent quest for power, to what end is unknown. The only thing that is becoming terrifyingly clear is there may be no way to stop him.
