Dead Space (film)

Dead Space is a 2028 sci fi horror film directed by Francis Lawrence and written by Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz. Based on the game series of the same name by EA, it takes place in the distant future of 2508, where Issac Clarke and a few other recruits visit the shipwreck of the USG Ishimura to repair it, but stumble into a nightmare of horror. The ensemble cast features Jake Gyllenhaal, Olivia Wilde, Lance Reddick, Sam Worthington, Ewan McGregor, and Amber Heard. The director cast a group of international actors for the film, and had the actors live together and learn about topics related to their roles, as a form of method acting. 
The film was a co-production between the motion picture studios of MWM Studios, Nine Stories Productions, Impact Pictures, and Constantin Film. Theatrically, it was commercially distributed by TriStar Pictures, while the Sony Pictures Home Entertainment division released the film in the video rental market. Dead Space explores physics, science and religion. Following its wide release in theatres, the film garnered several award nominations for its acting, directing, and production merits. It also won an award for Best Technical Achievement for production designer Felicity Abbott from the British Independent Film Awards. The film score was composed by Disasterpeace and was released by Sony Music on 25 November 2029.
Previous science fiction films that Lawrence cited as influences included Stanley Kubrick's 1968 film 2001: A Space Odyssey, Andrei Tarkovsky's 1972 film Solaris, and Ridley Scott's 1979 science-fiction horror film Alien. Dead Space was released in the United Kingdom on 23 April 2028 and in the United States on 7 June 2028. The film took £5.2 million in the UK over twelve weeks, and in the USA it was placed no. 13 in the box office on the first weekend of its wide release. With a budget of US$56 million, it ultimately grossed US$68 million worldwide. Preceding its initial screening to the public, the film was generally met with positive critical reviews, but was not considered a box office success. Widescreen DVD and Blu-ray editions of the film, also including the hi-definition theatrical trailer, scene selections, and director's commentary among other highlights, were released in the United States on 8 January 2029.
