Rihanna is set to hit the big screen again, this time as an alien in upcoming sci-fi film Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets.
In the first teaser trailer, the Work singer can be seen removing a black bowler hat to reveal blonde bombshell locks.
Not many details have been released about the character Rihanna will be playing in the film, which is directed by The Fifth Element's Luc Besson and stars Dane DeHaan (Chronicle) and Cara Delevingne (Suicide Squad).
Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets is based on the French graphic novel Valérian and Laureline and the space agents DeHaan and Delevingne as they cross time and the universe to protect the human race.
