The trailer begins with P.T. being fired from his job before he gets the idea to assemble his own circus crew. "Every one of us is special and nobody is like anyone else. That's the point of my show," P.T. says. "No one ever made a difference by being like everyone else."

"The Greatest Showman" is an original musical centers on P.T. Barnum and his poverty-stricken childhood to the launch of his first circus in New York. Featuring original music from "La La Land" and "Dear Evan Hanson" duo Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, it also stars Zac Efron, Michelle Williams, Rebecca Ferguson, and Zendaya Coleman.
