Hollywood<\/strong> is preparing to make history with I See You<\/strong>, the first movie to be shot in space<\/strong>. Producer Andrea Iervolino is working with NASA astronaut Scott Kelly<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hollywood<\/strong> is preparing to take a step into cinematic history: a film will be shot in space<\/strong> for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I See You<\/strong>, a romantic space drama<\/strong>, is set to begin filming next year, 60 miles (about 100 km) above Earth<\/strong>. The film is being produced by Andrea Iervolino<\/strong>, known for productions like Paradox Effect<\/em>, In the Fire<\/em>, and Finding Steve McQueen<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Italian-Canadian producer brought in an experienced NASA<\/a><\/em> astronaut<\/strong> as a script consultant<\/strong> to ensure the story is scientifically accurate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The film’s storyline is currently being kept secret, but according to Iervolino, the themes of human resilience<\/strong>, loneliness<\/strong>, and emotional connection<\/strong> will be prominent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hollywood’s First Fiction Film in Space<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Two years ago, Russia<\/strong> made history with The Challenge<\/em>, the first fiction film shot in space<\/strong>. I See You<\/strong> will be Hollywood’s first feature film<\/strong> in this realm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tom Cruise<\/strong> and director Doug Liman had also announced a few years ago that they were working on an action film<\/strong> to be shot in space, but that project has yet to materialize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Legendary Astronaut Scott Kelly Joins the Project<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

One of the names involved in the project is retired NASA astronaut Scott Kelly<\/strong>. Kelly, who participated in four space missions<\/strong>, holds the record for the longest single space flight<\/strong> in NASA<\/strong> history (340 days<\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kelly will consult on the script to “realistically reflect human resilience<\/strong> and emotional connection in space<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iervolino states, “It is a great honor for us to have Scott Kelly<\/strong> on the project. His experience adds emotional depth<\/strong> and scientific authenticity<\/strong> to the film.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Script by Legendary TV Writers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The film’s screenplay is being written by Andrew Schneider<\/strong> and Diane Frolov<\/strong>, known for TV series such as The Sopranos<\/em> and Northern Exposure<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the director, cast, and release date have not yet been announced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

The Production Team Will Go to Space<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Andrea Iervolino<\/strong> says he will also travel to space<\/strong> when filming begins. Some actors may join the crew on this journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discussions for the rocket<\/strong> that will carry the production team are reported to be in the “advanced stages.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Space Tourism is Now Real<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Going to space<\/strong> no longer sounds as crazy as it once did. Private companies like Blue Origin<\/a><\/em><\/strong> have already started taking tourists<\/strong>\u2014and even celebrities like Katy Perry\u2014to space<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The production team will undergo an intensive physical and technical training program<\/strong> before filming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Fiction Integrated with Real Footage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not every scene will be shot in space<\/strong>. Iervolino says that some parts of the film will use real space footage<\/strong> (stock video<\/strong>). This will reduce both the cost and the shooting time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The New Era of Space Entertainment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Iervolino is also the CEO of Space11<\/strong>, a company founded in 2021. The company holds the distinction of being the first space film studio<\/strong>, aiming to “take the world of entertainment to space.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This idea was actually realized by Russian director Klim Shipenko<\/strong>. Shipenko’s The Challenge<\/em> (2023) was the first fictional feature film shot in space<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the film, a surgeon named Yulia Peresild embarks on a mission to rescue an astronaut<\/strong> on the space station<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While documentaries like Apollo 11<\/em> (2019) and In the Shadow of the Moon<\/em> (2007) also feature space footage<\/strong>, this new era for fiction films<\/strong> is only just beginning now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What was once only a dream, “filming in space<\/strong>,” could become the new standard<\/strong> in the world of cinema in the coming century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
