Ridiculously Thrilling New Trailer for Alfonso Cuaron’s Gravity
Holy crap Houston we have a problem!
Check out a new trailer/90-second clip (it’s both, apparently) for Alfonso Cuarón’s “Gravity”, which looks like a single, continuous shot from the movie. Granted, continuous shots are easier to do nowadays with CGI and whatnot, and hell, who knows if this really was a single continuous shot, but it sure looks damn cool.
Academy Award® winners Sandra Bullock (“The Blind Side,” “The Proposal”) and George Clooney (“Up in the Air,” “Syriana”) star in “Gravity,” a heart-pounding thriller that pulls you into the infinite and unforgiving realm of deep space. The film was directed by Oscar® nominee Alfonso Cuarón (“Children of Men”).
Bullock plays Dr. Ryan Stone, a brilliant medical engineer on her first shuttle mission, with veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky (Clooney) in command of his last flight before retiring. But on a seemingly routine spacewalk, disaster strikes. The shuttle is destroyed, leaving Stone and Kowalsky completely alone—tethered to nothing but each other and spiraling out into the blackness.
The deafening silence tells them they have lost any link to Earth…and any chance for rescue. As fear turns to panic, every gulp of air eats away at what little oxygen is left.
But the only way home may be to go further out into the terrifying expanse of space.
The film stars George Clooney and Sandra Bullock and that’s about it, I guess.
