Filmmaker Roland Emmerich announced the start of his latest film, MOONFALL, on Twitter to celebrate National Moon Day.

In MOONFALL, a mysterious force knocks the Moon from its orbit around Earth and sends it hurtling on a collision course with life as we know it. With mere weeks before impact and the world on the brink of annihilation, NASA executive and former astronaut Jo Fowler (Academy Award® winner Halle Berry) is convinced she has the key to saving us all – but only one astronaut from her past, Brian Harper (Patrick Wilson, “Midway”) and a conspiracy theorist K.C. Houseman (John Bradley, “Game of Thrones”) believe her. These unlikely heroes will mount an impossible last-ditch mission into space, leaving behind everyone they love, only to find out that our Moon is not what we think it is.

MOONFALL is directed by Roland Emmerich who helmed the impressive MIDWAY, as well as Independence Day, Stargate, Godzilla, The Patriot, The Day After Tomorrow, and 2012. MIDWAY was released on November 8, 2019, opened #1 at the U.S. box office and has grossed over $140 million worldwide to date.
