According to the summary, his journey will reveal secrets that challenge the nature of human existence and our place in the cosmos.
Director James Gray says Collider that the film will present "the most realistic representation of space travel put into a film". He also described it as "a kind of genre, if you have 'Apocalypse Now' and '2001' in a giant mash-up and you put a little [Joseph] Conrad on the inside. "
"Ad Astra" means "to the stars" in Latin. It is often used as a shortcut for "Ad Astra per Aspera"(To the stars through the difficulties).
The film also stars Liv Tyler, Donald Sutherland and Ruth Negga and will be released on September 20, after a delay due to Disney's takeover of Fox.
"Ad Astra", a "threat" threatens all life on Earth and is somehow linked to a mission that vanished 16 years ago.
