The heart-pounding trailer features Offerman, 53, as the president of the United States, addressing the “citizens of America” about the war.
“The so-called Western forces of Texas and California have suffered a very grave defeat at the hands of the United States military,” he says, before a series of scenes show people apparently running for their lives through New York City and elsewhere.
“We’re American, okay?” Moura tells him.
“Okay. What kind of American are you?” asks Plemons, 35, adding with a laugh before raising his gun, “You don’t know?”
