The $150M-budgeted action-sci-fi is about an unlikely band of misfits who must save mankind when the moon falls out of orbit and hurtles toward earth. Previously set up at Universal, the project is now available in the independent market space with AGC Studios and CAA Media Finance on board for world sales.

Here's the official synopsis from the production: 'The Moon. It controls our nights, our days, the seasons, and our ocean tides. And since the beginning of humankind, its phases stood as a symbol of enlightenment, inner knowledge – and our own immortality. Until now. Suddenly and without warning a mysterious force knocks the Moon from its orbit around Earth and sends it hurtling on collision course with life as we know it. With mere weeks before impact, and against all odds, a ragtag team launches an impossible last-ditch mission into space, leaving behind everyone they love and risking everything to land on the lunar surface, unlock its secrets, and save our planet from annihilation. But first they must battle an unknown and unfathomable power that will challenge everything we know about the moon, the universe, and ourselves.'

Weeks?

Is that enough time to train an oil rig crew to fly a space shuttle?

I've always liked the moon falling sequence in Time Machine. Interesting premise to say the least, hope they stay grounded and sciency and not go supernatural lol

i know it's right in the title but somehow i still doubted it could be that obvious. nope, straight up 'the moon is gonna crash into the earth'. incredible.

It's Roland Emmerich. This is the guy who came up with the line "the neutrinos have mutated". I don't think he even knows what science is.

Roland Emmerich films always have great cinematography, scores and castling (minus Godzilla) but the scripts are absolute shit and the characters are so one-dimensional and the dialogue so dull and simple that we end up with bad popcorn films.

... So Armageddon + that aborted additional Independence Day sequel he didn't get after how awful Resurgence was?
