Dreamworks Releases Trailer For Steven Spielberg's 'War Horse'

Dreamworks has released its new trailer for Steven Spielberg's World War I period drama "War Horse."

Set amid rural England and war-torn Europe, young Albert befriends and trains a horse named Joey, before the two are parted against their respective wills.

As the horse becomes a part of World War I, he becomes an inspiration to soldiers, civilians, British cavalry, German soldiers and a small French family.

Spielberg directed the inspiring tale from a script by "Bridget Jones's Diary" scribe Richard Curtis and "Billy Eliot" writer Lee Hall, based upon a novel by Michael Morpurgo.

"War Horse" stars Emily Watson, David Thewlis, Tom Hiddleston, Jeremy Irvine, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Toby Kebbell. It hits theaters Dec. 25.
