Trailer : First Man

On the heels of their six-time Academy Award®-winning smash, “La La Land”, Oscar®-winning director Damien Chazelle and star Ryan Gosling reteam for Universal Pictures’ “First Man”, the riveting story behind the first manned mission to the moon, focusing on Neil Armstrong and the decade leading to the historic Apollo 11 flight. A visceral and intimate account told from Armstrong’s perspective, based on the book by James R. Hansen, the film explores the triumphs and the cost—on Armstrong, his family, his colleagues and the nation itself—of one of the most dangerous missions in history.

Written by Academy Award® winner Josh Singer (“Spotlight”, “The Post”), the epic drama of leading under the pressure of grace and tragedy is produced by Wyck Godfrey & Marty Bowen (“The Twilight Saga”, “The Fault in Our Stars”) through their Temple Hill Entertainment banner, alongside Isaac Klausner (“Love, Simon”) and Chazelle. Steven Spielberg, Adam Merims and Singer executive produce, while DreamWorks Pictures co-finances the film.

The film will be released October 12.
