“If we don’t stop him, it will be the end of mankind as we know it.”
 
Morgan Freeman says those ominous words in the new trailer for Transcendence, editor Wally Pfister’s feature film directorial debut. Pfister seems to have learned a lot about filmmaking from working with writer/director Christopher Nolan, and the tone and look of Transcendence is reminiscent of Inception.
 
The cast of Transcendence is led by Johnny Depp and includes Paul Bettany, Rebecca Hall, Kate Mara, Cillian Murphy, Clifton Collins, Jr., and Morgan Freeman. Warner Bros is aiming for an April 11, 2014 theatrical release.
 
The Plot:
 
Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) is the foremost researcher in the field of Artificial Intelligence, working to create a sentient machine that combines the collective intelligence of everything ever known with the full range of human emotions. His highly controversial experiments have made him famous, but they have also made him the prime target of anti-technology extremists who will do whatever it takes to stop him. However, in their attempt to destroy Will, they inadvertently become the catalyst for him to succeed—to be a participant in his own transcendence. For his wife Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) and best friend Max Waters (Paul Bettany), both fellow researchers, the question is not if they can…but if they should. Their worst fears are realized as Will’s thirst for knowledge evolves into a seemingly omnipresent quest for power, to what end is unknown. The only thing that is becoming terrifyingly clear is there may be no way to stop him.
