Christopher Nolan didn’t launch a film this yr, so theaters are bringing again certainly one of his previous ones to compensate. Interstellar was set to return to theaters subsequent month however will as an alternative be delayed till December, Selection reviews.
The 2014 house epic starring Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, and Jessica Chastain will hit theaters once more on December 6 as an alternative of September 27 as initially deliberate. The revival marks the tenth anniversary of Nolan’s ninth film and can embody 70mm IMAX showings.
Interstellar tracks astronauts on a mission to discover a new liveable planet for Earth’s remaining residents to flee to. It’s a film in regards to the destruction of the planet and the facility of affection, and certainly one of Nolan’s extra emotional and human tasks. It’s the one time he’s labored with McConaughey, and the actor gave certainly one of his finest performances in it on the peak of the McConaissance (Dallas Purchaser’s Membership was a yr earlier).
So why the delay? “The theatrical launch date was pushed to align with the house leisure relaunch,” Selection reviews. I don’t know what that basically means since Interstellar is already obtainable at residence, however the publication says Paramount disputes current rumors that the shift was resulting from misplaced or destroyed copies of the unique 70mm reels.
As an alternative, Paramount says it has loads of archived copies of the film, however that some movie reels expertise put on and tear from normal use.
