Selena Gomez in the 'Emilia Perez' teaser dances and brings passion in the emotional clip. Watch.
In the nearly two-minute visual, fans get glimpses of the 32-year-old singer-actress staring down the camera, breaking down in tears and lying on a blanket with her fictional family while watching the stars. All the while, someone — presumably leading lady Karla Sofía Gascón, who plays the film’s titular character — sings in whisper-soft Spanish.

Also starring Zoe Saldaña, who appears throughout the teaser, the movie follows a Mexican drug lord embracing her true identity as a woman. premiered in French theaters Aug. 21.
