The first clip features Colonel Graff (Harrison Ford) and Ender (Asa Butterfield) talking about the possibility of him leading the Dragon Army:

Ender says to Colonel Graff:

“I find it hard to respect someone just because he outranks me, Sir,”

Graff replies:

“That puts you in a difficult position, doesn’t it? You don’t like taking orders … perhaps you’d prefer to give them.”

Colonel Graff also says that the Dragon Army army has never won a battle, Ender has his work cut out as many will rely on his skills to win the war.

The film is directed and written by South African filmmaker Gavin Hood (“X-Men Origins: Wolverine”). The Sci-Fi action film will be released on November 1.
