From the director of
Take Shelter and Mud, Jeff Nichols, comes Midnight Special, a sci-fi thriller
starring Michael Shannon as a father trying to protect and uncover the truth behind
his son's (Jaeden Lieberher) special abilities all while being hunted by
religious extremists and local law enforcement.
The film also stars
Joel Edgerton, Kirsten Dunst, Adam Driver, Sam Shepard, Bill Camp, Scott Haze,
and Paul Sparks.
Midnight Special
opens on March 18, 2016.
In the sci-fi
thriller “Midnight Special,” writer/director Jeff Nichols proves again that he
is one of the most compelling storytellers of our time, as a father (Michael
Shannon), goes on the run to protect his young son, Alton (Jaeden Lieberher),
and uncover the truth behind the boy’s special powers.
What starts as a race
from religious extremists and local law enforcement quickly escalates to a
nationwide manhunt involving the highest levels of the Federal Government.
Ultimately his father risks everything to protect Alton and help fulfill a
destiny that could change the world forever, in this genre–defying film as
supernatural as it is intimately human.
