**Interstellar is a 2014 epic science fiction drama film directed by Christopher Nolan, who co-wrote the screenplay with his brother, Jonathan Nolan. It features an ensemble cast led by Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Michael Caine, Casey Affleck, Tom Hardy, Ellen Burstyn, John Lithgow, Matt Damon, Mackenzie Foy, Timothée Chalamet, Bill Irwin, Wes Bentley, David Gyasi, Josh Stewart, Leah Cairns, Francis X. McCarthy, William Devane, Elyes Gabel, Lili Taylor, Topher Grace, Collette Wolfe, David Oyelowo, and C. C. H. Pounder. The film was shot on 35 mm film in the Panavision anamorphic format and IMAX 70 mm by cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema. It was edited by Lee Smith, with music composed by Hans Zimmer. The film follows a group of astronauts who travel through space in search of a new home for humanity, with the crew consisting of Cooper, robots TARS and CASE, and scientists Amelia Brand, Romilly, and Doyle. They traverse the wormhole after a two-year voyage to Saturn, and Cooper, Doyle, and Brand use a lander to investigate Miller's planet, where they find only wreckage from Miller's expedition before a tidal wave kills Doyle and waterlogs the lander's engines. By the time they leave the planet, Cooper and Brand discover that 23 years have elapsed on the Endurance. Having enough fuel left for only one of the remaining planets, they decide to go to Mann's planet, despite Brand's protests, as he is still broadcasting. En route, they receive messages from Earth and Cooper watches Tom grow up, marry, and lose his first son, while an adult Murph is now a scientist working on the gravity equation with Professor Brand. On his deathbed, Professor Brand confesses to Murph that the Endurance crew was never meant to return, since a complete solution to the equation was impossible to obtain without measurements from inside a black hole. On Mann's planet, they awaken him from cryostasis, and he assures them that colonization is possible, despite the extreme environment. During a scouting mission, Mann attempts to kill Cooper and reveals that he falsified his data in the hope of being rescued. He steals Cooper's lander and heads for the Endurance. A booby trap set by Mann kills Romilly, but Brand rescues Cooper with the other lander and they race back to the Endurance. Cooper is able to regain control of the spacecraft through his own docking maneuver. With insufficient fuel, Cooper and Brand resort to a slingshot around Gargantua, which costs them 51 years due to time dilation. In the process, Cooper and TARS detach in their craft to lighten the Endurance so that Brand and CASE may reach Edmunds' planet. Falling past Gargantua's event horizon, they eject from their craft and find themselves in a tesseract made up of infinite copies of Murph's bedroom across moments in time. Cooper deduces that the tesseract was constructed by advanced humans in the far future, and realizes that he had always been Murph's "ghost." Using Morse code, he manipulates the second hand of her wristwatch to transmit the data TARS collected, enabling Murph to complete the gravity equation's solution. The tesseract, its purpose fulfilled, collapses, ejecting Cooper and TARS. Cooper wakes up on a station orbiting Saturn. He reunites with Murph, now elderly and on her deathbed, who tells him to seek out Brand. Cooper and TARS take a spacecraft to rejoin Brand and CASE, who are establishing the human colony on Edmunds' planet.
