This 'Okja' trailer is the giant pig monster movie of your dreams

What do you get when you combine Tilda Swinton, Jake Gyllenhaal, Steven Yeun from The Walking Dead, and a big, adorable pig monster? 

We don't quite know, but we can't wait to find out. 

Netflix has unveiled the first trailer for Okja, the new movie by Snowpiercer director Bong Joon-ho, and it looks weird and dark and sweet and funny and, above all, just freakin' fantastic.

Newcomer Ahn Seo-hyun plays Mija, a little girl who's befriended an enormous creature that looks sort of like a cross between a hippo and a hairless dog. It also apparently tastes like a pig, to the delight of a Mirando Corp CEO played by Swinton. 

When Mirando kidnaps her animal friend, Mija sets out on a journey to get her back. Along the way, she gets caught up with a group of animal activists (played by Yeun, Paul Dano, Lily Collins), and more. 

Okja will be on Netflix June 28.
