Yeah. Based on this trailer, they changed things around from Annihilation the book. Heck, according to this interview director Alex Garland didn’t actually have a chance to read the rest of the trilogy before writing the screenplay and he doesn’t seem all that worried about that.

The ‘Annihilation’ trailer.
I’ll be honest: having looked at the book reviews for the trilogy (Southern Reach) that this is based off of, I suspect that Annihilation is one of those movies where I’ll be happier for not having read the books. I can’t comment on the books themselves, because I haven’t read them; but the movie seems to be promising, in a creepy sort of way. I am more tolerant of creep-for-creep’s-sake in movies than I am in books.
