ROCKETMEN – Theatric release expands Dangerous’s space brand

Building on the success of THE NASA MISSIONS: WHEN WE LEFT EARTH and MOONSHOT, Dangerous has harnessed its experience in films covering space exploration in releasing the company’s debut movie, Rocketmen. Distributed in Japan by Sony Pictures Entertainment, Rocketmen is an inspirational portrayal of the triumphs and tragedies punctuating the first 50 years of NASA’s manned missions.

From the pioneering Mercury launches to the daring Gemini project, the narrative reveals the epic behind-the-scenes struggle that ultimately carries men to the Moon. Charting an adventure that culminates in the majestic space shuttle and the missions of today, Rocketmen goes beyond the hardware to focus on the men and women who are prepared to lay their lives on the line in the name of exploration.

Beautiful sequences capturing the thrilling magic and mystery of a journey into space give audiences an astronaut’s view of a rocket ride into orbit. Directed by Richard Dale, and released to box-office success and critical acclaim, Rocketmen is a tribute to NASA’s pioneering space missions, to the danger of new adventures and to raw human courage.
