Matt Damon Never Stops Fighting in New Trailer For ‘The Martian’

Things get interesting when Watney wakes up a few hours later, all alone, forced to find a way to survive with limited resources. The film will open in cinemas on the 2nd of October.

Planting Matt Damon’s botanist Mark Watney into the stickiest of sticky situations, The Martian will see his astronaut stranded on the Red Planet after a raging martian storm throws a spanner in the works of an interplanetary mission.

Access Hollywood’s Scott Mantz spoke with Matt about the movie on Tuesday, a project that keeps true to the best-selling book and still digestible. And then there are his crewmates, headed back to Earth on the Hermes ship, and seemingly kept in the dark about Mark’s status. If the preview whet your appetite for the movie, youre definitely going to want to read about the special footage screening and Q&A that I attended this week. (Watch it above, with Damon breaking down the movie’s new trailer.) “They had to put this giant fake stomach on me”, he said with a smile.

Director Scott collaborated with NASA specialists to create a near future that’s as realistic and scientifically sound as possible.

Following the said event, Fox released the second trailer for “The Martian“, wherein the audience was able to depict what was discussed last Wednesday into the film through the trailer.

Meanwhile, NASA and an worldwide team of scientists are trying to help him from 140 million miles away. The film has an nearly excessively excellent cast, including Damon, Jessica Chastain, Kristen Wiig, Jeff Daniels, Michael Peña, Kate Mara, Sean Bean (whose character must inevitably die), Sebastian Stan, Donald Glover and Chiwetel Ejiofor. As these stories of incredible bravery unfold, the world comes together to root for Watney’s safe return.
