17 Oct
Summary
- Atmosphere film adaptation is in development by Captain Marvel filmmakers.
- Story follows scientist Joan and pilot Vanessa in NASA's early shuttle program.
- The film's release is anticipated for late 2027 at the earliest.
Taylor Jenkins Reid's novel "Atmosphere" is officially heading to the big screen, announced in September 2026. The adaptation will be helmed by Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck, the directing duo behind "Captain Marvel." This sweeping love story is set against the backdrop of NASA's early shuttle program.
The plot follows Joan, a scientist chosen as one of the first female astronauts in 1980. She encounters Vanessa, a charismatic pilot, forging a deep connection that transcends the universe. Their journey takes a perilous turn when a catastrophe forces them into a desperate race against time.
Currently in development, "Atmosphere" does not yet have a confirmed release date. Given that filming has yet to commence, the earliest projected debut is late 2027. Casting announcements are also pending, with no actors attached to the project at this time.
