Transcendence
Transcendence is one of the science fiction not to miss this year, as Johnny Depp leads an all star cast.
Transcendence is set to be the directorial debut from Wally Pfister; best known for his work as a cinematographer.
Depp will star alongside Morgan Freeman, Paul Bettany, Rebecca Hall, Kate Mara and Cillian Murphy, we see all of them in action in this terrific new trailer:
The Transcendence screenplay has been penned by Jack Paglen, this is his first screenplay to be made into a film.
Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) is the foremost researcher in the field of Artificial Intelligence, working to create a sentient machine that combines the collective intelligence of everything ever known with the full range of human emotions.
His highly controversial experiments have made him famous, but they have also made him the prime target of anti-technology extremists who will do whatever it takes to stop him.
However, in their attempt to destroy Will, they inadvertently become the catalyst for him to succeed - to be a participant in his own transcendence. For his wife Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) and best friend Max Waters (Paul Bettany), both fellow researchers, the question is not if they can - but if they should.
Their worst fears are realized as Will’s thirst for knowledge evolves into a seemingly omnipresent quest for power, to what end is unknown. The only thing that is becoming terrifyingly clear is there may be no way to stop him.
Transcendence is released 25th April
