It’s been a long time since we talked about Space Cadet, but if we’re being honest, we weren’t sure what was happening. We heard about it in 2022 and then it just seemed to disappear.
Though we’ve been here long enough to know when silence happens it doesn’t necessarily mean that nothing is happening. That’s the trick that Hollywood plays on you. Sometimes it means nothing is happening and sometimes it means that everything is happening.
Apparently Space Cadet was being filmed and now we have a trailer and a release date.
In the movie, “Tiffany “Rex” Simpson (Emma Roberts) has always dreamed of going to space, but life isn’t going quite as planned. Determined to turn things around, she aims high and with the embellishing touch of her supportive best friend Nadine (Poppy Liu), her “doctored” application lands her in NASA’s ultra-competitive astronaut training program. In over her head, Rex relies on her quick wits, moxie and determination to get to the top of her class. NASA program directors Pam (Gabrielle Union) and Logan (Tom Hopper) certainly take notice, but can this Florida girl get through training and into the cosmos before she blows her cover?”
Space Cadet is a comedy about the power of being yourself, following your dreams and shooting for the stars.
The trailer looks like it is something that we would definitely enjoy. The more ridiculous, the better for us.
Space Cadet stars Emma Roberts, Tom Hopper, Poppy Liu, Gabrielle Union, Kuhoo Verma, Desi Lydic, Sebastián Yatra, Yasha Jackson, Andrew Call, Troy Iwata, Josephine Huang, Dave Foley, Sam Robards, and Joshua Harto.
The movie will premiere on Prime Video on July 4th, 2024.
