The Midnight Sky
ActionAdventureDramaSci-FiThriller122 min
After a mysterious global catastrophe, a lone scientist in the Arctic races to contact a spacecraft heading back to Earth with a warning not to return. George Clooney is the aging researcher, cut off from the world and pushing across the frozen landscape to reach the crew in time. Aboard the ship, Felicity Jones is among the astronauts still making their way home, unaware of what may be waiting below. The story moves between the stark isolation of the Arctic and the enclosed rhythms of space travel as Earth and the mission drift toward the same point of contact.
