Hollow Man

Hollow Man is a 2000 science fiction horror film directed by Paul Verhoeven and written by Andrew W. Marlowe from a story he co-wrote with Gary Scott Thompson. The film stars Elisabeth Shue, Kevin Bacon, Josh Brolin, Kim Dickens, Greg Grunberg, Joey Slotnick, Mary Randle, and William Devane. It follows Sebastian Caine, a scientist who volunteers to test an experimental serum that renders him invisible. When the process cannot be reversed, he becomes increasingly unstable and violent.

Produced as a large-scale studio project with an emphasis on visual effects, the film was shot in 1999 on a budget of approximately $95 million, most of which was allocated to effects work by Sony Pictures Imageworks and Tippett Studio. Filming took place in California and the Washington, D.C. area, combining practical effects with digital compositing to depict invisibility, including motion-control photography and computer-generated imagery.
