Moon

From cinemablend, Sam Rockwell has a knack for picking oddball projects. They don’t always work out, but you can’t accuse his filmography of being boring. His next oddity is a movie called Moon, in which he plays a man stranded up there in the sky alone for three years.

Even though it seems like this project was just announced a few weeks ago, the movie’s first teaser poster has already popped up online. You can see the poster to your right, along with a first still from the film over at QuietEarth.com. The poster looks a little like something from Solaris or 2001: A Space Odyssey, but I’m hoping this is more Robinson Crusoe in Space.

Here’s how Moon is described in its official plot synopsis: “Sam Bell is nearing the end of his contract with Lunar. He's been a faithful employee for 3 long years. His home has been Selene, a moon base where he has spent his days alone, mining Helium 3. The precious gas holds the key to reversing the Earth's energy crisis.”
