‘Geostorm’ Finally Has a Trailer and You Can Check it Out Here
So as I was watching the trailer for “Geostorm” I started thinking about how long had it been since we talked about that movie. I did a little searching and we first mentioned it way back in 2014. In the article I talk about there being a “Beverly Hills Cop” sequel in the works. Holy crap! Remember when that was a thing?!
Anyways, after all this time global disaster flick “Geostorm” is finally heading to theaters and we have a teaser trailer to prove it actually exists. The plot of this film sounds utterly dumb and, honestly, I can’t wait to see it for myself. Here it is:
After an unprecedented series of natural disasters threatened the planet, the world’s leaders came together to create an intricate network of satellites to control the global climate and keep everyone safe. But now, something has gone wrong—the system built to protect the Earth is attacking it, and it’s a race against the clock to uncover the real threat before a worldwide geostorm wipes out everything…and everyone along with it.
Dean Devlin (writer/producer, “Independence Day”) makes his feature film directorial debut with suspense thriller “Geostorm,” starring Gerard Butler (“Olympus Has Fallen,” “300”), Jim Sturgess (“Cloud Atlas”), Abbie Cornish (“Limitless”), Alexandra Maria Lara (“Rush”), Daniel Wu (“The Man with the Iron Fists,” “Warcraft: The Beginning”), with Oscar nominees Ed Harris (“The Hours,” “Apollo 13”) and Andy Garcia (“The Godfather: Part III”).
Butler stars as Jake, a scientist who, along with his brother, Max, played by Sturgess, is tasked with solving the satellite program’s malfunction. Cornish stars as Secret Service agent Sarah Wilson; Lara as Ute Fassbinder, the ISS astronaut who runs the space station; Wu as Cheng, the Hong Kong-based supervisor for the Dutch Boy Program; with Garcia as U.S. President Andrew Palma; and Harris as Secretary of State Leonard Dekkom. The film also stars Adepero Oduye (“The Big Short,” “12 Years a Slave”), Amr Waked (“Lucy,” “Syriana”), Robert Sheehan (“The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones,” “Season of the Witch”) and Eugenio Derbez (“Instructions Not Included”).
Apparently there is also a subplot about someone trying to assassinate the President as well. Yes, someone trying to assassinate the President during the apocalypse. Amazing. Check out the trailer below.
