The science fiction epic Interstellar, directed by Christopher Nolan, will be re-released in cinemas to commemorate its tenth anniversary. Paramount Pictures revealed this at its CinemaCon presentation in Las Vegas on April 12. It will be available for viewing on digital screens in addition to 70MM IMAX prints, which are director Christopher Nolan’s preferred format. The movie, co-produced by Warner Bros., will be released on September 27, 2024. With Anne Hathaway and Matthew McConaughey in the key roles, the movie brought in $188 million domestically and over $730 million worldwide.
Co-written by Nolan and his brother Jonathan Nolan, the film centres on a farmer and former NASA pilot assigned to pilot a spaceship if Earth becomes inhospitable in the future.
Interstellar, which many consider one of Nolan’s greatest works, has received great praise for its realistic depiction of theoretical astrophysics and scientific correctness. With its depictions of black holes, space travel and several planets—all of which were heightened by the use of lots of real and miniature effects combined with computer effects—it also happens to be among his most visually magnificent films.
In the film, McConaughey played Joseph Cooper, Anne Hathaway played Dr Amelia Brand, Jessica Chastain played Murphy Cooper, John Lithgow played Donald, Michael Caine played Professor John Brand, Casey Affleck played Tom Cooper, Wes Bentley played Doyle, and Bill Irwin played TARS. The cast is further completed by Timothée Chalamet, Matt Damon, David Gyasi, Mackenzie Foy, and Topher Grace, among many more.
Rotten Tomatoes gives the film an audience score of 83%. In addition, it received five nominations for Academy Awards and took home the Best Visual Effects title.
Interstellar is Nolan’s most recent picture to return to theatres. In February, Tenet was re-released for a week, and Regal Cinemas announced that this month they would be showing Inception, Interstellar, Dunkirk, The Dark Knight, and Insomnia for just $5 each.
Nolan’s most recent movie, Oppenheimer, brought in an astounding $968 million globally last year, mostly because of IMAX screenings. At the Academy Awards, the film—which starred Cillian Murphy as the film’s title physicist—won seven prizes, including Best Picture, Best Actor for Murphy, Best Director for Nolan, and Best Supporting Actor for Robert Downey Jr.
