'Bill & Ted Face The Music' gets a glorious, time-twisting first trailer

Hot on the heels of a glorious first poster, Warner Bros. has released the first trailer for the long-awaited time-travelling sequel Bill & Ted Face The Music.

The follow up to 1989’s Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure and 1991’s Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey comes 29 years after the last film in the series and sees Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves reprising their roles of Bill S Preston Esq. and Ted ‘Theodore’ Logan. William Sadler returns as the Grim Reaper, joining Brigette Lundy-Paine as Billie "Little Bill" Logan, Ted’s teenage daughter and Samara Weaving as Theodora/Thea "Little Ted" Preston, Bill's teenage daughter.

Bill & Ted Face The Music is coming to cinemas Summer 2020. Watch the first trailer above.

The trailer sees the duo travelling forward in time in order to steal the song that saves the world from their older, much musclier selves.

Directed by Dean Parisot with returning franchise writers Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon and starring Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter, Bill & Ted Face The Music will continue to track the time-traveling exploits of William "Bill" S. Preston Esq. and Theodore "Ted" Logan.

The synopsis explains: “Yet to fulfill their rock and roll destiny, the now middle aged best friends set out on a new adventure when a visitor from the future warns them that only their song can save life as we know it. Along the way, they will be helped by their daughters, a new batch of historical figures, and a few music legends — to seek the song that will set their world right and bring harmony in the universe.”
