VIDEO: Watch the First Trailer For ‘The Darkest Minds’ Starring Amandla Stenberg and Mandy Moore

Amandla Stenberg wages a resistance with her band of supernatural teens in the first trailer for the highly anticipated summer film “The Darkest Minds,” out Aug. 3.

Stenberg plays 16-year-old Ruby who escapes government detainment and becomes determined to fight back with the help of other gifted teens.

“The Darkest Minds” also stars Mandy Moore as Dr. Cate Connor, an ally to the resistance, as well as “Game of Thrones” standout Gwendoline Christie as Lady Jane, a bounty hunter sent to find the runaway teens.
