Tubi is recognized for adding both well-loved classics and lesser-known treasures to its free streaming platform, expanding the accessibility of movies and TV shows. One of the recent additions, coming in May, is the groundbreaking epic science fiction film Interstellar, produced by Christopher Nolan in 2014. Starring Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Bill Irwin, Ellen Burstyn, and Michael Caine, this critically acclaimed movie was the tenth highest-grossing film of that year, earning over $670 million globally. The distribution rights were handled by Paramount/Warner Bros.

The movie centers around a team of astronauts journeying through a wormhole close to Saturn, seeking a fresh habitat for humanity. This film is set in a future marked by devastation, as Earth grapples with a catastrophic plague and food scarcity. Christopher Nolan became part of the project following his brother, Jonathan Nolan’s, hiring to craft the storyline and script. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in 2015, the director expressed his belief that there was a significant chance to narrate a heartfelt tale centered on human connections and relationships.

Jonathan and I discuss a wide range of topics, regardless of whether we’re collaborating on them or not. Since he’s been working on this particular project for over four years, I was privy to its development. The potential for telling a deeply personal story about human connections and relationships set against the grand backdrop of cosmic events seemed extraordinary to me. Therefore, when the opportunity arose for my involvement, I was eager to take it because such opportunities are rare…

As a follower, I resonate with Christopher Nolan and Matthew McConaughey’s emphasis on human connection, as evident in their work on Interstellar. In this movie, McConaughey’s character, Coop, is a widowed NASA pilot who, due to the government closing the agency, transitions to farming reluctantly. However, he later joins the Endurance mission as the lead pilot. During an interview with ABC News in 2014, this seasoned actor, who played one of the main characters, shared that his personal reason for accepting the role of Joseph “Coop” Cooper was his son’s fascination with space.

The primary motivation behind creating this movie was the captivating curiosity Levi displayed about space. I would delve into topics such as the solar system, our journey to the moon, and various cosmic phenomena. His youthful, amazed gaze, striving to comprehend it all, was a driving force.

‘Interstellar’ and Its Star-Studded Cast

Occasionally, a film with numerous well-known actors can be overwhelming. Yet, the movie Interstellar managed to strike a balance. Anne Hathaway embodied Dr. Amelia Brand, the daughter of Professor Brand (Michael Caine), who is also a NASA scientist. Jessica Chastain portrayed Murphy “Murph” Cooper, Joseph’s daughter and eventual colleague of Dr. Brand in her pursuit to become a NASA scientist. Ellen Burstyn took on the role of elderly Murph. Notable appearances were made by Timothée Chalamet, Casey Affleck, Bill Irwin, Matt Damon, Topher Grace, among others. In December 2024, Interstellar was re-released in over a hundred IMAX theaters to mark its 10th anniversary celebration.
