Fourteen years ago, Josh Hutcherson and Isabelle Fuhrman co-starred in the biggest film of their careers at the time, The Hunger Games. Now they’re together again in Signal One, a new sci-fi flick from Shout! Studios which co-stars screen vets Dennis Quaid and David Thewlis.
The film is written and directed by Jonathan Sobol, who has worked with other screen legends recently, such as Ron Perlman, Nick Nolte, and Kurt Russell.
Here’s the Signal One synopsis: When tech billionaire Sam Houston hires the brilliant computer scientist Annika, she ventures to an isolated facility run by the brilliant, nihilistic creator of LITTLEMOUTH, a machine which can communicate with alien intelligence. Annika soon learns some humanity-altering facts: that we are not alone in the universe, that alien intelligences are communicating around us at every moment, and that we are likely too primitive to even remotely understand what they are trying to tell us. But when the goal of the endeavor shifts from listening to talking back, the project rapidly devolves into chaos. With contact comes consequences, and soon Annika and the team must work to ensure the very survival of our species.
Signal One opens in theaters and VOD on June 5th.
