Independence Day, Godzilla and Independence Day: Resurgence director Roland Emmerich has set his next project, a sci-fi epic titled Moonfall. Reported by THR tonight, AGC will be shopping the film in Cannes, which Emmerich is co-writing with Harald Kloser and Spenser Cohen.
Moonfall is said to “imagine a disaster in which a mysterious force knocks the moon from its orbit, sending it on a collision course towards earth. With little time to spare, a ragtag team launches a last-ditch mission to the moon, hoping to solve the mystery and save the earth from annihilation.”
Emmerich’s Centropolis Entertainment will produce the film.
Production is slated to begin early next year.
