Off to Mars

Looks like sprawling casts (that include Jessica Chastain) for films set in outer space are the s--- these days.

There is, of course, the upcoming Christopher Nolan joint Interstellar (which will feature the Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby star in a key role), and, soon, there will be Ridley Scott’s The Martian.

Matt Damon will be headlining the latter – the story of an astronaut left for dead and behind in Mars struggling to stay alive – and he will be sharing the screen not only with Chastain and Kristin Wiig but with Chiwetel Ejiofor as well.

Evidently, so are Kate Mara, Sean Bean (TNT’s Legends), Donald Glover (TV’s Community), Michael Peña, Jeff Daniels, Mackenzie Davis, and Sebastian Stan (Captain America: The Winter Soldier).

Jeez. The graphic designer on this one’s gonna busy creating ’em one-sheets.
