Encyclopedic overview

Passengers is a 2016 American science fiction romance film directed by Morten Tyldum, written by Jon Spaihts and starring Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt. The supporting cast includes Michael Sheen, Laurence Fishburne, and Andy Garcia. The film follows two passengers on an interstellar spacecraft carrying thousands of people to a colony 120-years-traveling-distance from Earth, when the two are awakened 90 years early from their suspended hibernation.

The script was written by Spaihts in 2007, but languished in development, with multiple actors attached to it over the years until Sony Pictures Entertainment acquired the rights in late 2014. Lawrence, Pratt and Tyldum joined the project shortly thereafter, and filming took place from September 2015 to February 2016 in Atlanta.
