Interstellar is an upcoming 2014 science fiction film directed by Christopher Nolan. Starring Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, and Michael Caine, the film features a team of space travelers who travel through a wormhole. It was written by Jonathan Nolan and Christopher Nolan, who combined his idea with an existing script by his brother that was developed in 2007 for Paramount Pictures and producer Lynda Obst. Nolan is producing the film with Obst and Emma Thomas. Theoretical physicist Kip Thorne, whose works inspired the film, acted as both an executive producer and a scientific consultant for the film.

Warner Bros., who produced and distributed Nolan's previous films, negotiated with Paramount, traditionally a rival studio, to have a financial stake in Interstellar. Legendary Pictures, which formerly partnered with Warner Bros., also sought a stake. The three companies co-financed the film, and the production companies Syncopy and Lynda Obst Productions were enlisted. The director also hired cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema since his long-time collaborator Wally Pfister was busy working on Transcendence, his directorial debut. Interstellar was filmed with a combination of anamorphic 35mm and IMAX film photography. Filming took place in the last quarter of 2013 in locations in the province of Alberta, Canada, in southern Iceland, and in Los Angeles, California. The visual effects company Double Negative created visual effects for Interstellar.

Interstellar is scheduled to have a limited release in North America (United States and Canada) on November 5, 2014 and a wide release on November 7, 2014. The film will also be released in Belgium, France, and Switzerland on November 5, 2014 and in additional territories in the following days, including the United Kingdom on November 7, 2014. For the limited release in North America, it will be released in 70 mm and 35 mm film formats in approximately 240 theaters still project the format, including at least 41 70 mm IMAX theaters. For the wide release, it will expand to theaters that will project Interstellar in digital format. Paramount Pictures will distribute the film in North America, and Warner Bros. will distribute it in the remaining territories.



Christopher Nolan's new film is helping usher in a new and timely genre classification

As the blast-off date of Christopher Nolan‘s hybrid sci-fi/cli-fi movie “Interstellar” approaches on Nov. 7, millions of fans have already been checking out the three trailers online and wondering what comes next. And what exactly is the movie all about? Is it a sci-fi extravaganza, or is it part of the new genre of cli-fi movies that focus on climate change and global warming issues, even if the characters venture out into space as well?

Peter Sinclair, a savvy political cartoonist and climate activist who runs a popular website titled “Climate Denial Crock of the Week,” recently post the third and latest “Interstellar” trailer which he found via a Slate post by Forrest Wickman, and Sinclair headlined his post: “‘Interstellar’ may be a cli-fi classic.”

Ever since Time Magazine ran a large spread on the rise of cli-fi movies in Hollywood in its May 19 issue, more and more studios have been singing the cli-fi tune. When “Into the Storm” was released, the press release from the PR firm running the movie's promotion that was sent to the international press called the movie a cli-fi movie. The result was that movie critics and websites in Brazil, Mexico, Spain and France started calling the movie a cli-fi flick.

The cli-fi genre term has caught on for a few reasons. One, it's in the air. Climate change news stories are in the newspapers and online sites every day now. Two, Time Magazine has a wide international pull and it also is good at penetrating Hollywood PR people. Three, The New York Times Room for Debate forum on cli-fi reached a large community of academics and film people as well. And four, just as last year's “Gravity” was not really a sci-fi movie even though it was billed as such, so too is “Interstellar” much more of a cli-fi movie than a sci-fi movie.

But why not satisfy both camps, the sci-fi fans and the growing cli-fi camp, by calling Nolan's movie a hybrid sci-fi/cli-fi flick? That's where I am going to park my car for now. “Interstellar” is both a sci-fi movie and a cli-fi movie, and movie critics and audiences worldwide will have the final say. And maybe, along with a few well-placed op-eds in the Los Angeles Times and the New York Times as well.

Remember this, too: The cli-fi meme has much of its origins here at the Wrap where I have been writing about for a few years, pushing the the idea uphill and explaining the background of the term.

When watching the latest “Interstellar” trailer I picked up these quotes and mention them here to show the cli-fi themes in the Nolan's story.

At one point Michael Caine‘s character says to Matthew McConaughey‘s character in that deep British voice of his, ”Your daughter's generation will be the last to survive on Earth.”

“This world's a tragedy,” says McConaughey's character in another segment of the trailer. “It's been telling us to leave for a while now.”

“Get out there and save the world,” says Caine as the space ship prepares to take off for parts unknown. Save the world? The Earth is in need of saving? This is definitely cli-fi territory, no?

“You might have to decide between seeing your children again and the future of the human race,” says another character.

“We have a mission but our mission does not work if the people we leave here on Earth are dead by the time we pull it off,” says yet another.

“We'll find a way, we always have,” intones another voice.

Where are they going? Why are they leaving Earth (and that's Earth with a capital E)? Did climate change and global warming lead to what comes next?

“The first half of the new trailer focuses on what appears to be the movie's environmental message: Matthew McConaughey talks about the importance of adapting on the movie's climate-change-wrecked Earth,” Slate's Wickman wrote, adding: “But the second half takes us deep into the movie's space travel sequences, and shows us a number of striking new images.”

Whatever you're looking for, and wherever you”re coming from, you'll find it in Nolan's “Interstellar.”

For astronaut McConaughey and the rest of his crew (played by Anne Hathaway and Wes Bentley, among others), there is a world to save and that world is our Earth.

Sci-fi? Cli-fi? The genre doesn't matter.

What will matter is that come Nov. 7, a whole new Nolanesque universe will open up and invite the world inside. I'm calling it a cli-fi classic, taking the opinion of Peter Sinclair as on target. You?

Big Hero 6 is an upcoming American 3D computer-animated superhero-comedy film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and inspired by the Marvel Comics superhero team of the same name. The film will be directed by Don Hall and Chris Williams, and will be the 54th animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series. Big Hero 6 will be the first Disney animated film to feature Marvel characters since The Walt Disney Company's acquisition of Marvel Entertainment in 2009. The film will be released on November 7, 2014 by Walt Disney Pictures.


When the Japanese government wanted a team of state-sanctioned super-heroes at their disposal, a top-secret consortium of politicians and business entities known as the Giri was formed to recruit and train potential superhuman operatives for "Big Hero 6." Despite reservations by some members of the Giri, Silver Samurai, a freelance ronin and former bodyguard of the terrorist Viper, was appointed as field commander. Secret agent Honey Lemon, inventor of the nanotechnology-based Power Purse from which she could access any object, also agreed to join the team. The tough-talking GoGo Tomago, able to transubstantiate her body into a fiery force blast by uttering her code-name, was released from prison on the condition that she serve on the team. The Machiavellian bureaucrat known only as Mr. Oshima was appointed as the Giri's spokesperson and coordinated Big Hero 6's activities.

Government scientists next identified 13-year-old boy genius Hiro Takachiho as a potential operative. Unimpressed with the Silver Samurai, Hiro declined joining the team until his mother was kidnapped by the Everwraith, the astral embodiment of all those killed in the 1945 nuclear attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Joined by Baymax, a synthetic bodyguard capable of synthforming into a dragon which was created by Hiro using the brain engrams of his dead father, Hiro reluctantly joined forces with Big Hero 6 to prevent Everwraith from slaughtering millions in downtown Tokyo. During the battle, Big Hero 6 was joined by Sunfire, Japan's premiere super hero and a mutant with the ability to super-heat matter into plasma, who was instrumental in the Everwraith's defeat.

Soon after, Big Hero 6 moved their headquarters from the Giri Office Building to Japan's Cool World Amusement Park, where they were attacked by X the Unknowable, a monster born from a child's drawings that could transform its atomic structure into any form and shape. With the help of Alpha Flight, Big Hero 6 destroyed X the Unknowable in the fires of Mount Fuji. Afterwards, Big Hero 6 continued to protect Japan from all threats, such as when the team rescued Tokyo residents from a freak blizzard caused by the Crimson Cowl (Justine Hammer) and her Masters of Evil.

Eventually, Sunfire left Big Hero 6 so that he could work at Charles Xavier's X-Corporation office in Mumbai, India. His spot on the team was filled by Sunpyre, a young woman with similar solar-based powers who was pulled into this reality through the Power Purse and came to worship Honey Lemon as her own personal god. Similarly, after Silver Samurai was seemingly slain in an altercation with the assassin Elektra in Iraq, his spot on the team was filled by the enigmatic Ebon Samurai. With the two most experienced members of Big Hero 6 gone, Hiro became the team's new leader.

Most recently, the members of Big Hero 6 fell victim to a mind-control device implanted within Baymax. Traveling to Canada, the mind-controlled super heroes attacked a new incarnation of Alpha Flight at a national park. After a brief battle, the mind-control device was short-circuited and the two teams parted as friends. Big Hero 6 returned to Japan to seek out the parties responsible for their mind-control.
