“It looks easy, but when it’s flooded, it’s impossible,” Farrell’s character, Volanthen, says about navigating the cave in a trailer released on Jun. 28. as the British-led team of cave experts grapples with devising a life-saving rescue plan.

The actor also confessed to being “nervous” for the entire shoot at a press conference because “I can’t really swim.”

As Howard noted at the real-life rescue, however, “When people pull together, incredible things can happen.”
