SONG: “Band on the Run” by Paul McCartney & Wings

“Stuck inside these four walls / Sent inside forever/ Never seeing no one nice again / Like you / Mama, you / Mama, you...”

SUMMARY: In the not-so-distant future, an increasingly volatile climate on Earth has forced governments across the world to come together and seek out hospitable planets across the galaxy that might be able to support the mass exodus of humans looking to flee natural disasters that are making life on Earth unsustainable. Instrumental to this search has been technology that allows for an AI pilot to navigate the space ship while the human crew are kept in stasis for long stretches of time, allowing them to travel farther out into the galaxy than ever before.

On Earth, Dr. Ilsa Craine (Amy Adams), the inventor of this technology, awaits news from the first ship equipped with it, the Artemis, as it approaches the four year anniversary of its launch. While she waits, she reflects on her life, recalling the events that led to her working for NaxosTech and meeting her recently deceased mentor, the brilliant and eccentric scientist Dr. Gustav Mahler (Mark Hamill), with whom she created the AI technology currently piloting the Artemis. She is also forced to reflect on the reasons behind her failing marriage when her estranged husband Daniel (Diego Luna) returns home after months of working abroad on a mysterious project and wants to reconcile before it’s too late.

Aboard the Artemis, the skeleton crew, including Captain Lucia Gabel (Gina Rodriguez) and biologist Dr. Maxfield Lott (Chris Pine), are awoken from stasis by the ship’s pilot, Caro (Zendaya), per her orders. They are approaching the planet everyone hopes will be the answer to Earth’s prayers—able to sustain human life and close enough that, with current technology, human refugees can reach it before life on Earth becomes untenable. If this planet will not work, the Artemis will have to continue its search, stretching farther into the unknown parts of the galaxy and all but ensuring that humanity’s time on earth will end before a new home world can be found. As the crew runs tests and explores the planet, the wide-eyed Caro sends updates to her mother, Ilsa, and the world holds its breath as it waits for the crew of the Artemis to determine its fate.

#god I’m so sorry this took so long!!! #I had the idea the whole time I just straight up couldn’t write it down for whatever reason #also please don’t tell me I’m old for using a Wings song I know I am #this song gives me big sci-fi vibes it can’t be helped #is Mark Hamill doing an accent?? or is his name just super German?? we just don’t know #also it’s very important to note that his character is obsessed with opera #it’s plot relevant 👀 #it’s not really it’s just a fun character detail #I personally would kill for sci-fi that features a woman creating AI technology as a way of dealing with the concept of motherhood #I think that would rule #anyway thank you for sending this!! what a good cast!! #my writing #made up movies meme! #sonseulsoleil
