Where’s Christopher Nolan’s “Interstellar” on the festival circuit? Well, $200 million dollar films usually don’t need to or won’t risk a festival bow. Rumors that the sci-fi film would appear at the New York Film Fest turned out to be wrong – the committee wasn’t even screened the film, apparently not complete at the time. So we’ll just have to wait for November like the rest of the world.
Nolan’s latest sci-fi epic centers on a group of explorers who have to travel (to what appears like) the future through a wormhole to save mankind— or to “surpass the limitations on human space travel and conquer the vast distances involved in an interstellar voyage” as some synopsis’ have suggested. As ever, Nolan’s got a terrific cast for this one that includes Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Ellen Burstyn, John Lithgow, Michael Caine, Casey Affleck, Wes Bentley, Bill Irwin, Mackenzie Foy, Topher Grace and David Gyasi.
