GRAVITY Final Event Trailer – “I’ve Got You”
Remember the 2003 film OPEN WATER where 2 scuba divers were left stranded and adrift in the ocean surrounded by sharks? Only this time, it’s two astronauts stranded and adrift in outer space running out of oxygen in director Alfonso Cuarón’s GRAVITY.
I haven’t even seen the movie and the three scenes below are already giving me an anxiety attack.
Here they are in order… strap yourself in and get ready for a white-knuckle ride.
Good recruitment videos at Space Camp, dontcha think?
Starring Sandra Bullock and George Clooney, GRAVITY is a heart-pounding thriller that pulls you into the infinite and unforgiving realm of deep space.
Bullock plays Dr. Ryan Stone, a brilliant medical engineer on her first shuttle mission, with veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky (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 was written by Alfonso Cuarón & Jonás Cuarón. Alfonso Cuarón and David Heyman (the “Harry Potter” films) are the film’s producers. Chris deFaria (“Happy Feet Two”) Nikki Penny (“Clash of the Titans”) and Stephen Jones (“Knowing”) served as executive producers.
The behind-the-scenes team includes multiple Oscar®-nominated cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki (“Children of Men,” “The New World”); production designer Andy Nicholson (supervising art director “Alice in Wonderland”); editors Alfonso Cuarón and Mark Sanger (VFX editor “Alice in Wonderland”); and costume designer Jany Temime (the “Harry Potter” films). The effects were handled by Oscar®-nominated visual effects supervisor Tim Webber (“The Dark Knight”) and Oscar®-winning special effects supervisor Neil Corbould (“Gladiator”). The music is by Steven Price (“Attack the Block”).
GRAVITY will have it’s North American premiere at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival on Sunday, September 8th, at 6:30pm at the Princess of Wales Theater.
