Netflix has released the first teaser Robert Rodriguez’s new action-adventure movie, We Can Be Heroes.

When alien invaders kidnap Earth’s superheroes, their children must team up and learn to work together if they want to save their parents and the world.

The film stars YaYa Gosselin, Pedro Pascal, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Christian Slater, Boyd Holbrook, Christopher McDonald and Adriana Barraza along with Vivien Blair, Isaiah Russell-Bailey, Akira Akbar, Lyon Daniels, Nathan Blair, Lotus Blossom, Hala Finley, Andy Walken, Dylan Henry Lau, Andrew Diaz, Taylor Dooley, Sung Kang, Haley Reinhart, J. Quinton Johnson, and JJ Dashnaw.

It also features the return of Sharkboy and Lavagirl from Rodriguez’s 2005 film. That film starred Taylor Lautner and Taylor Dooley. Dooley has returned to the role, but it seems like Lautner did not sign up for the new film as Sharkboy is now played by J.J. Dashnaw while their daughter is played by Vivien Lyra Blair.
