Universal Pictures has released a trailer for the upcoming family comedy Aliens Ate My Homework. Based on the first book in Bruce Coville’s Galactic Patrol series, the film is directed by Sean McNamara and stars Jayden Greig, Lauren McNamara, Kirsten Robek, Dan Payne, Ty Consiglio, and Alex Zahara, and features the voice talents of William Shatner, who also provides a special introduction to the trailer.

Based on Bruce Coville’s best-selling book series, this suspenseful family comedy follows the adventures of sixth-grader Rod Allbright and the extraterrestrial lawmen known as the Galactic Patrol. When a tiny spaceship flies through his window and lands on his science project, Rod and his cousin Elspeth meet a group of friendly aliens, including Phil, a talking plant (voiced by William Shatner). The earthlings quickly join the aliens’ adventurous mission to help defeat an evil alien criminal. After discovering the evil alien is disguised as a human – someone he knows all too well – Rod and Elspeth race to save the world from total planetary disaster.

Aliens Ate My Homework is set for release on March 6th on DVD, Digital Download and On Demand.
