Don’t Look Up, which was partly filmed in Fall River, will be released to some local theaters in just a few days

A flick with a star-studded cast, that had scenes filmed in Fall River, will be released to select theaters in the coming days and a couple of those select theaters are right in our backyard.

DON’T LOOK UP tells the story of two low-level astronomers, who must go on a giant media tour to warn mankind of an approaching comet that will destroy planet earth.

Kate Dibiasky (Jennifer Lawrence), an astronomy grad student, and her professor Dr. Randall Mindy (Leonardo DiCaprio) make an astounding discovery of a comet orbiting within the solar system. The problem — it’s on a direct collision course with Earth. The other problem? No one really seems to care. Turns out warning mankind about a planet-killer the size of Mount Everest is an inconvenient fact to navigate. With the help of Dr. Oglethorpe (Rob Morgan), Kate and Randall embark on a media tour that takes them from the office of an indifferent President Orlean (Meryl Streep) and her sycophantic son and Chief of Staff, Jason (Jonah Hill), to the airwaves of The Daily Rip, an upbeat morning show hosted by Brie (Cate Blanchett) and Jack (Tyler Perry). With only six months until the comet makes impact, managing the 24-hour news cycle and gaining the attention of the social media obsessed public before it’s too late proves shockingly comical — what will it take to get the world to just look up?!

The film was shot in locations throughout Massachusetts including Battleship Cove in Fall River which was included in the new trailer.

DON’T LOOK UP is written and directed by Academy Award winner Adam McKay (The Big Short) and also stars Mark Rylance, Ron Perlman, Timothée Chalamet, Ariana Grande, Scott Mescudi (aka Kid Cudi), Himesh Patel, Melanie Lynskey, Michael Chiklis and Tomer Sisley.

The movie is set to open in select theaters on December 10th and on Netflix December 24th, however, two local theaters have scheduled showings as early as December 9th. Those two theaters are Picture Show at SouthCoast Marketplace and Providence Place Mall Cinemas. Be aware if you want to see Don’t Look Up on the big screen as both locations currently have showing times for just a few days.
