The script is called Passengers and is big science fiction love story set in deep space. It takes place on a ship transporting thousands of people in suspended animation to a new planet. When one of the pods malfunctions it awakens a single passenger 90 years early. He decides he doesn't want to spend his life alone so he wakes up another passenger.
