The Midnight Sky Synopsis & Poster
"Our humanity always endures. This post-apocalyptic tale follows Augustine (George Clooney), a lonely scientist in the Arctic, as he races to stop Sully (Felicity Jones) and her fellow astronauts from returning home to Earth, where a mysterious global catastrophe has taken place. Clooney directs the adaptation of Lily Brooks-Dalton's acclaimed novel Good Morning, Midnight, co-starring David Oyelowo, Kyle Chandler, Demián Bichir, and Tiffany Boone. Coming to Netflix on December 23rd."
This looks pretty excellent. I do wish that this could be experienced in the theater on a huge screen instead of on my couch, but what are you going to do. Clooney really seems to have gone for something with this; The Midnight Sky looks like the epic space drama that we never knew we needed in this hellscape we call 2020. Hopefully, he can stick the landing here and give the emotional heft to the space scenes they require. We need tons of space, screaming!
The Midnight Sky will debut on Netflix on December 23rd.
