You've heard the phrase "the sky is falling." Now get ready for "the moon is falling!"

Director Roland Emmerich (Independence Day, The Day After Tomorrow, 2012) returns with another disaster movie that will see the whole world thrown into chaos. The new catastrophe? The moon. Our friendly neighborhood satellite has been knocked out of its orbit and is hurtling toward Earth, wreaking havoc on a global scale. It's up to NASA executive and former astronaut Jo Fowler (Halle Berry), astronaut Brian Harper (Patrick Wilson), and conspiracy theorist K.C. Houseman (John Bradley) to battle the moon and save the day.

Moonfall hits theaters February 4, 2022.
