Okja is the new film from Snowpiercer director Bong Joon-ho and follows the epic journey of Mija, a young girl who risks everything to prevent a powerful, multi-national company from kidnapping her best friend — a massive animal named Okja.

“It’s a very shy and introverted animal,” the filmmaker told EW last year. “It’s a unique animal that we’ve not seen before.”

In fact, until now, we hadn’t seen the animal at all. But a new teaser for the film — which premieres June 28 on Netflix — gives us our first glimpse of the beast.

Okja stars Tilda Swinton, Jake Gyllenhaal, Paul Dano, Giancarlo Esposito, Steven Yeun, Lily Collins, and newcomer Seo Hyun An.

Watch that new teaser above.
