AD ASTRA

Fox Home Entertainment provided the featured product for promotional consideration

I was bummed that I didn't get a chance to see AD ASTRA when it was in theaters. So this sci-fi fan is excited that the film is now available to add to your home entertainment video library. Thanks to Fox Home Entertainment for providing me a digital code so I can watch it on Vudu. Looking forward to grabbing some popcorn and relaxing on the couch to watch this flick!

The premise of AD ASTRA is that thirty years prior to the start of the movie's events, Clifford McBride (Tommy Lee Jones) led a voyage into deep space, but the ship and crew were never heard from again. Now his son Roy (Brad Pitt) -- a fearless astronaut -- must embark on a daring mission to Neptune to uncover the truth about his missing father and a mysterious power surge that threatens the stability of the universe.



AD ASTRA has elements of science fiction hits 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) and The Martian (2015) wrapped in its own original story. I appreciate that from seeing the trailer it seems this sci-fi adventure is portrayed with an intent to provide a realistic envisioning of future space travel to make the fantasy aspects of the adventure more compelling and believable to audiences. I'm geeked about watching AD ASTRA!



The movie is now available on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, DVD, and online Digital services such as Vudu and MoviesAnywhere.
