Warner Bros. Pictures released a featurette for Gravity, an upcoming sci-fi drama film co-written, produced, co-edited and directed by Alfonso Cuarón.
Starring Sandra Bullock and George Clooney as surviving astronauts in a damaged space station.
“In this video, director Alfonso Cuarón & NASA astronauts discuss the intense & raw cinematic experience of Gravity & the preparation that went into delivering a true-to-life space exploration.”
“We wanted it to be an immersive experience, as if you’re sitting in the theatre but you feel as if you’re floating in space. There’s no other format as immersive as IMAX,” said Cuarón.
Plot:
“Dr. Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) is a brilliant medical engineer on her first shuttle mission, with veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky (George Clooney) in command of his last flight before retiring. But on a seemingly routine spacewalk, disaster strikes.
The shuttle is destroyed, leaving Stone and Kowalsky completely alone–tethered to nothing but each other and spiraling out into the blackness. The deafening silence tells them they have lost any link to Earth…and any chance for rescue.
As fear turns to panic, every gulp of air eats away at what little oxygen is left. But the only way home may be to go further out into the terrifying expanse of space.”
Gravity is scheduled to release in 3D, 2D and IMAX 3D theaters on October 4, 2013.
