Marvel star Tessa Thompson (Thor: Love and Thunder) and Christopher Nolan star Joseph Gordon-Levitt (The Beginning) will meet on the set of a sci-fi show. The project is called “Ash”.

What do we know about the movie “Ashes”?

Thompson will play a woman who wakes up on a distant planet and discovers that the rest of the space station crew has been brutally murdered. When a man (Gordon-Levitt) sent to rescue her arrives, she must decide if she can truly trust him. In turn, a man trying to find out what happened on the space station will begin to doubt whether the woman is really as innocent as she seems…

Behind the camera will be rapper Flying Lotus, who will also prepare the music. Johnny Reimler wrote the script. Among the producers is Neil Blomkamp himself.
