Danny Boyle, the director behind Trainspotting and 28 Days Later, is ready to start the big push for his next movie Sunshine which has already had a great run in its native UK. The movie stars Cillian Murphy, Chris Evans and Rose Byrne and focuses on a last ditch effort by humans to save the Earth from the dying Sun. I’m a sucker for Sci-Fi and I love Danny Boyle, so this movie sounds amazing!
Synopsis:
Fifty years from now, the sun is dying, and mankind is dying with it. Our last hope: a spaceship and a crew of eight men and women. They carry a device which will breathe new life into the star. But deep into their voyage, out of radio contact with Earth, their mission is starting to unravel. There is an accident, a fatal mistake, and a distress beacon from a spaceship that disappeared seven years earlier. Soon the crew is fighting not only for their lives, but their sanity.
