From Ridley Scott, the director behind Alien, Blade Runner, Gladiator and The Martian, comes The Dog Stars – a film adaptation of Peter Heller’s acclaimed bestseller.
After a deadly virus has nearly wiped out humanity, pilot Hig lives an isolated life in a world where hope seems to have vanished. But when an unexpected radio signal breaks the silence, the possibility awakens that there is still something worth fighting for.
Peter Heller’s novel has been praised worldwide for its poetic storytelling and its unusually human approach to the post-apocalyptic genre. With The Dog Stars, Ridley Scott returns to the kind of epic science fiction that has made him one of our time’s most influential filmmakers – and delivers a story that is as emotional as it is visually epic.
