The first video preview of Stardust, the David Bowie film about the artist first coming to the U.S. in 1971 and inventing the Ziggy Stardust persona, has been released.

Embedded below, Johnny Flynn is seen as Bowie, while Marc Maron plays Mercury Records publicist Ron Oberman.

Stardust was originally scheduled to premiere at the Tribeca Festival Festival, but due to the coronavirus pandemic, the film will later be released to the public through video-on-demand.
