New Images From ‘Transcendence’ Featuring Kate Mara, Paul Bettany, & Rebecca Hall
Here are a bunch of new images from Wally Pfister’s upcoming sci-fi film Transcendence featuring Kate Mara and her fried hair, Rebecca Hall, Paul Bettany, & Johnny Depp. The film centers on “two leading computer scientists who work toward their goal of Technological Singularity, as a radical anti-technology organization fights to prevent them from creating a world where computers can transcend the abilities of the human brain.”
Morgan Freeman & Cillian Murphy also star. Transcendence hits theaters on April 17th. Images courtesy of The Playlist.
Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) is the foremost researcher in the field of Artificial Intelligence, working to create a sentient machine that combines the collective intelligence of everything ever known with the full range of human emotions. His highly controversial experiments have made him famous, but they have also made him the prime target of anti-technology extremists who will do whatever it takes to stop him. However, in their attempt to destroy Will, they inadvertently become the catalyst for him to succeed—to be a participant in his own transcendence. For his wife Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) and best friend Max Waters (Paul Bettany), both fellow researchers, the question is not if they can…but if they should. Their worst fears are realized as Will’s thirst for knowledge evolves into a seemingly omnipresent quest for power, to what end is unknown. The only thing that is becoming terrifyingly clear is there may be no way to stop him.
