Will Smith and Jaden Smith team up onscreen for the sci-fi thriller After Earth directed by M Night Shyamalan and coming to theaters on May 31, 2013. And in this interview video courtesy of Columbia Pictures, the father and son acting team talk about the appeal of the project, what exactly is ‘ghosting’, and what audiences can expect from After Earth.
The Plot:
A crash landing leaves teenager Kitai Raige (Jaden Smith) and his legendary father Cypher (Will Smith) stranded on Earth, 1,000 years after cataclysmic events forced humanity’s escape. With Cypher critically injured, Kitai must embark on a perilous journey to signal for help, facing uncharted terrain, evolved animal species that now rule the planet, and an unstoppable alien creature that escaped during the crash. Father and son must learn to work together and trust one another if they want any chance of returning home.
