Who is the director?
Both written and directed by Adam McKay, we can expect the unexpected in ‘Don’t Look Up’.
Plot
When a comet is hurtling towards Earth with a 99.7% chance of total destruction, President Janie Orlean (Meryl Streep) would have us all, you said it, “Sit tight and assess.” Watch the frustrated and baffled scientists (played by Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence) explain to a disinterested Presidential audience that we are all about to die in Adam McKay’s sci-fi comedy Don’t Look Up. The footage was unveiled at a TUDUM event on Saturday.
What does Leonardo have to say?
Leonardo DiCaprio knew right away this was a story he wanted to tell, saying, “Adam has an unparalleled ability to spark conversation with humour and timely stories. I knew when I read his script that it was incredibly unique, as it struck an important chord concerning the modern world we live in. Adam has woven an incredibly timely message about society, how we communicate, our current priorities, and the climate crisis into an absurdly funny yet important movie.”
While billed as a comedy, the teaser released a couple of weeks ago showing a hyperventilating DiCaprio trying to calm himself, and Jonah Hill expressing that his breathing is “Stressing me out,” does leave you very excited.
