It grossed $304 million worldwide and was nominated for Best Original Score and Best Production Design at the 89th Academy Awards. It received mixed reviews, with praise for Lawrence and Pratt's performances, Newman's musical score, and its visual style and production values, but was criticized for its plot and characters. Passengers premiered at the Regency Village Theater in Los Angeles on December 14, 2016, and was released theatrically in the United States by Columbia Pictures on December 21, 2016. It was produced by Village Roadshow Pictures, Start Motion Pictures, Original Film, LStar Capital, Wanda Pictures and Company Films, and was the last film from Columbia Pictures with the involvement of Village Roadshow Pictures. Lawrence, Pratt and Tyldum quickly joined the project, and filming took place from September 2015 to February 2016 in Atlanta. The script was written in 2007 by Spaihts, but languished in development hell with multiple actors attached and detached from it over the years until Sony Pictures Entertainment acquired its rights in late 2014.

This return to stardom truly took off in 2021 with the releases of the action horror-comedy Willy's Wonderland, the drama Pig, which many felt he was snubbed of Oscars recognition, and the meta action comedy The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. I hope that the correlation is going to work for us, because he definitely has crazy hair.Īfter starring in a string of mostly poorly received direct-to-video movies, Cage has enjoyed something of a career resurgence in the past few years thanks to acclaimed performances in indie action horror movie Mandy and Lovecraf adaptation Color Out of Space. Like Adaptation, all the films that he's great in, he has crazy hair. Yuval Adler: Yeah, no, that saying is about the quality of the film, not his performance. Nic's doing a little BTS interview on set, and he's basically talking about how the fan community addresses that you can tell what kind of performance Nic's gonna have based on hair, and then he goes, "Hello!" And he embraces, it's amazing. Yuval Adler: Yeah, during pre-production, he started sending us pictures, and he suddenly stopped communicating about how he looks, and then suddenly send that picture, and I was with his makeup person, who was in a meeting, and I was like, "What's going on? Send me what's going on, I want to know!" Then, he sent this picture with the red hair, and we're like, "Okay, interesting." It took us a moment, and then we remembered the saying, the crazier Nic Cage is, the better the film.Īllan Ungar: I think we have it, I think they're gonna release the clip next week, because Yuval and I really pushed it. See what Ungar and Adler shared below:Īllan Ungar: I was gonna say, I have to add the fact that I think my favorite part of all of this is that Nic just decided to show up with red hair. ![]() While talking about casting Nicolas Cage for the movie, the director shared his enthusiasm for working with the Oscar winner, though revealed that his colorful look was entirely his idea and left him and his producer speechless.
