Jeff Daniels To Star Opposite Brendan Fraser In Sci-Fi Thriller STARMAN

Jeff Daniels To Star Opposite Brendan Fraser In Scifi Thriller Starman

Two-time Emmy winner Jeff Daniels ("The Newsroom", "The Martian") is set to star in the upcoming sci-fi thriller "Starman" written and directed by Emmy-winning filmmaker Josh Wakely ("Beat Bugs", "Motown Magic"). Filming is set to begin this summer.

The film follows Tom Adams (Brendan Fraser), an architect of the future who launches a historic expedition to Mars, positioning himself at the forefront of humanity's next great frontier. But when unforeseen events strand him millions of miles from Earth, his mission becomes an urgent race against time—driven not by survival alone, but by love. Daniels will play Ed Watkins, the protective and powerful co-leader of a transformational company he built alongside Tom, a man who means far more to Ed than the company itself.

The film is produced by Wakely and Rebecca Graham through Grace: A Storytelling Company. Eddie Vaisman also produces via Sight Unseen ("Rental Family"). David S. Goyer ("Batman Begins") executive produces alongside Tarek Sherif, Ryan Graves, Matt Tedder and Sight Unseen's Julia Lebedev. The film is financed by Sherif and Graves. Anton is handling international sales.

Daniels can next be seen opposite Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon in the upcoming fifth season of Apple's "The Morning Show". He is also set to star as former President Ronald Reagan in the Cold War thriller "The Brink of War" opposite J.K. Simmons and Jared Harris. He recently wrapped production on Netflix's "2034" directed by Joseh Gordon Levitt, in which he stars opposite Rachel McAdams.
