Moonfall (2022)
From the “master of disaster”, Saturn Award winner Roland Emmerich (Independence Day, 2012, Godzilla, The Day After Tomorrow, Stargate) comes Moonfall, a sci-fi disaster romp that sees the moon hurtling on a collision course toward Earth after a mysterious force knocks it out of orbit.
The film stars Oscar winner Halle Berry (John Wick 3, Bruised, Monster’s Ball), Emmy nominee Patrick Wilson (Aquaman, Midway, Fargo) and IGN Summer Movie Award winner John Bradley (Game of Thrones’ Samwell Tarly). The cast also includes the likes of MTV Movie Award nominee and Black Reel Award winner Michael Peña (Ant-Man’s Luis, Fantasy Island, The Martian), BIFA nominee Charlie Plummer (Looking for Alaska, Lean on Pete), Emmy winner Donald Sutherland (The Hunger Games’ President Snow, Ad Astra, Alone) and Nigerian-American actor Eme Ikwuakor (Counterpart, Inhumans).
New York Magazine/Vulture calls it “unapologetically absurd and so very fun,” while Associated Press says, “Emmerich’s latest is an absolutely bananas piece of big-budget filmmaking, a sci-fi-, action- and disaster-thriller that gets more crazy by the minute. It makes Independence Day look like Little Women.”
