amy adams and alien language

Even though Arrival was released six years ago, it might as well have been yesterday. The story of alien spaceships that come to Earth is the basis of Arrival, a film starring Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner. Aliens aren't invading like in most movies. They use a universal language that allows humans to experience time in different ways. The film became a staple of the sci-fi genre.

Arrival fans will be able to explore it for the first time next week and io9 has your first look. The Art and Science of Arrival is a book that will recount the making of the film and its fascinating concepts. io9 has obtained a bunch of exclusive images from the book, including never-before-seen, behind-the-scenes photos and several exclusive pages showing early designs of the alien beings, their language, and their gorgeous spaceships.
