Directed by Robert Zemeckis
Starring Jodie Foster, Matthew McConaughey, James Woods, John Hurt, Tom Skerritt, and Angela Bassett
Rated PG with a runtime of approximately 150 minutes
The exciting adventure of the day we make contact with life beyond Earth comes to the screen with a profound sense of wonder and a dazzling visual sweep that extends to the outer reaches of space and the imagination.
Jodie Foster, winner of the 1988 and 1991 Best Actress Academy Awards® for The Accused and The Silence of the Lambs, and Matthew McConaughey (A Time to Kill, Amistad) headline a compelling tale of discovery based on Carl Sagan’s novel and directed by Robert Zemeckis (Forrest Gump, Back to the Future). Foster is astronomer Ellie Arroway, a woman of science. McConaughey is religious scholar Palmer Joss, a man of faith. They’re opposite ends of a spectrum…and sudden players on the wold stage as the countdown to humanity’s greatest journey begins. Powerfully, thrilling and emotionally, Contact connects.
