The first trailer for the biopic of renowned British theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking, "The Theory of Everything," has been released today.

Starring actor Eddie Redmayne and actress Felicity Jones, the film portrays the romantic relationship between Hawking and his first wife, Jane Wilde, and the ups and downs the couple go through as a result of a mono neuron disease striking the physicist at the time of his rising fame in the science world.

The biopic was inspired by Wilde's memoir, "Travelling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen."

The romantic drama hits U.S. theatres on November 7th and UK theatres on Christmas.
