While recovering from her ordeal, strange things start happening. Sam begins to worry that an alien presence has followed her home, making her question if she’ll survive and what exactly came back with her.

Cast and Crew
I just heard about this new movie, The Astronaut, and the cast sounds amazing! It’s got Kate Mara, Laurence Fishburne, Gabriel Luna, Ivana Milicevic, Macy Gray, and a newcomer named Scarlett Holmes. I’m definitely adding it to my watchlist!
Jess Varley wrote and directed the film, and Brad Fuller, Eric B. Fleischman, Chris Abernathy, and Cameron Fuller produced it.
