Saw the trailer a few nights ago. Looked great! I understand the extended trailer includes some spoilers, though.
I think according to the storyline, the sun is going through a premature demise due to some spatial phenomena.

The sun would be increasing exponentially and would grow dimmer over decades.....and if we miss that....maybe someone will notice mercury is gone So I doubt we have anything to worry about when it comes to the sun. But as Doctor Who would say,
"You lot, you spend all your time thinking about dying, like you're gonna get killed by eggs, or beef, or global warming, or asteroids. But you never take time to imagine the impossible. Like maybe you survive."

From the director of "28 Days Later" and "Trainspotting"? The first one was a very climatic movie and I've heard good things about the latter - it certainly drew my attention.
As for determining the age of the Sun: The scientists can estimate the amount of hydrogen in it by analysing the spectrum of radiation and surely have many other useful tricks, not mentioning their observations as Doruk Golcu said. As far as I know the Sun is halfway through it's lifespan.
I've got one question, though - unrelated with the topic. Does anyone know what the title of the music played in the trailer is?
