Yahoo Finance First trailer for I'm Your Man shows Dan Stevens as a German robot
Downton Abbey favourite Dan Stevens is artificially intelligent in the first trailer for the German sci-fi rom-com I'm Your Man.
After debuting at this year's Berlin International Film Festival to positive reviews, director Maria Schrader's newest project will finally hit the UK's silver screens next month, with the trailer dropping on Wednesday (July 28).
The footage shows Stevens as the German robot Tom and Maren Eggert as Alma, as they navigate a unique situation of Tom being a very human-like robot.

The official synopsis for I'm Your Man states: "Alma is a scientist at the famous Pergamon Museum in Berlin. In order to obtain research funds for her studies, she accepts an offer to participate in an extraordinary experiment.
"For three weeks, she is to live with a humanoid robot whose artificial intelligence has been designed to allow it to morph into that of her ideal life partner. Enter Tom, a machine in (handsome) human form, created to make her happy.
"What ensues is a tragicomic tale that explores notions of love, longing and what makes us human."

As fans can see from the video above, Stevens shows off his German-speaking expertise in the new movie as it looks like romance is on the cards.
Are we staring into the looking glass of our future? If the cyborgs taking over the world will look anything close to Stevens we certainly won't complain.
I'm Your Man arrives in UK cinemas and on Curzon Home Cinema on August 13.
