Save for Asteroid City, we haven’t seen much of Scarlett Johansson since Black Widow, and while Channing Tatum’s only major credit since The Lost City was the third Magic Mike. Here, they team up for Fly Me to the Moon, where Scarlett plays a PR person for NASA in the 1960s. She needs to fake the moon landing to beat the Soviets in the Space Race. Johansson and Tatum’s characters will also probably fall in love.

The flick, distributed by Sony, is by Greg Berlanti and has Berlanti’s breezy, lightweight tone and bright lighting. It also stars Woody Harrelson, Jim Rash, and Ray Romano. Watch the trailer.

Fly Me to the Moon is in theaters in July.
