Directed
by Steven Soderbergh, whose eclectic resume includes the Academy
Award-winning drama “Traffic” as well as last year’s
ensemble caper “Ocean’s Eleven,” now brings
his unique vision to SOLARIS, a story of a space mission gone
terribly wrong, and the surreal opportunity to make a love
go right.
Starring George Clooney (Oceans Eleven)
and Natascha McElhone (The Truman Show) the film is based
on the classic science fiction novel by Stanislaw Lem. SOLARIS
centers on a psychologist (George Clooney) sent to investigate
unexplained behavior of key scientists on a space station
orbiting the planet Solaris.
Once aboard, he too falls victim to this
unique world’s mysteries - as well as an erotic obsession
with someone he thought he had left behind.
The film is produced by Lightstorm Entertainment
partners James Cameron, Rae Sanchini and Jon Landau, whose
film “Titanic” received a record-tying 11 Academy
Awards, including Cameron’s three Oscars® for Best
Picture, Best Direction and Best Editing. The partners have
also produced such films as "Terminator 2", "Aliens",
and the television series "Dark Angel."
