Jim Gaffigan Plays An Astronaut In Trailer For LINOLEUM Alongside Rhea Seehorn, Michael Ian Black And Tony Shaloub

Check out the poster and trailer for LINOLEUM starring Jim Gaffigan and Rhea Seehorn, in Theaters on February 24th. In their SWSX 2022 review, Collider says, “Linoleum is an exquisite film that proves West to be a compelling young filmmaker, and will make the viewer certainly want to see more of Gaffigan and Seehorn in these types of roles,” and “a surprising, beautiful, and strange experience.”

Cameron Edwin (Jim Gaffigan), the host of a failing children’s science TV show called “Above & Beyond”, has always had aspirations of being an astronaut. After a mysterious space-race era satellite coincidentally falls from space and lands in his backyard, his midlife crisis manifests in a plan to rebuild the machine into his dream rocket. As his relationship with his wife (Rhea Seehorn) and daughter (Katelyn Nacon) start to strain, surreal events begin unfolding around him — a doppelgänger moving into the house next door, a car falling from the sky, and an unusual teenage boy forging a friendship with him. He slowly starts to piece these events together to ultimately reveal that there’s more to his life story than he once thought.

The film also stars Gabriel Rush (Moonrise Kingdom, The Grand Budapest Hotel), Amy Hargreaves (“Homeland”, “13 Reasons Why”), Roger Hendricks Simon (Love in Kilnerry, The Sublet), Elisabeth Henry (The Sisterhood of Night, Behind the Mirror), West Duchovny (A Mouthful of Air, The Report) with Michael Ian Black (Wet Hot American Summer, The State) and Tony Shalhoub (“Monk”, “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”)

From director Colin West, LINOLEUM was the Official Selection – 2022 SXSW Film Festival, and Recipient of the Sloan Science on Screen Award at the 2022 SFFILM Festival.
