Director Jeff Nichols and actor Michael Shannon have reunited for a Sci-fi film. Midnight Special finds Shannon as Roy, who discovers that this son Alton (Jaeden Lieberher) ha powers that make him, in the eyes of some, a terrible threat. The worry comes from government agents (Adam Driver) and an extreme religious sect overseen by Sam Shepard’s driven leader. The government views Alton as a potential weapon, whereas the religious types think he’s their saviour. Roy decides to go on the run alongside Kirsten Dunst and Joel Edgertonn.
The director of Mud and Take Shelter has created a trailer with a E.T. meets Looper vibe, but with its own unique trait. Check Out the trailer below.
