Brad Pitt's New Movie 'Ad Astra' Looks Good As Hell

(IMDB)“An astronaut travels to the outer edges of the solar system to find his father and unravel a mystery that threatens the survival of our planet. He uncovers secrets which challenge the nature of human existence and our place in the cosmos.”

I may be the world’s biggest sucker for space movies, so I’ll preemptively admit my bias, but god damn am I excited for this. It has hints of ‘Sunshine’ combined with ‘The Martian’ which are two of my favorite movies in the genre. It stars Brad Pitt (Fight Club), Liv Tyler (Armageddon), Tommy Lee Jones (No Country for Old Men) and Donald Sutherland (The Italian Job). It’s directed/written by James Gray, who made ‘We Own the Night’ as well as ‘The Lost City of Z’ which I found to be sincerely underrated. This is also a Plan B Entertainment (Brad Pitt’s production company) joint, and they’ve made a lotttt of heaters including ‘The Departed’, ‘Moneyball’, ’12 Years a Slave’, ‘The Big Short’, ‘Moonlight’, ‘Vice’ and more.
