Ridley Scott's The Martian is amassing quite the name of big time Hollywood stars.

Sean Bean, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Sebastian Stan are amongst the latest in a long line of big stars to join Matt Damon in Ridley Scott’s The Martian.

The story centers on an astronaut (Damon) who is stranded in a Martian colony and struggles to survive, hoping he can last long enough for NASA to organize a rescue mission. The cast already includes such high-profile names as Jessica Chastain, Jeff Daniels, Kate Mara, Michael Pena and Kristen Wiig. Scott is producing with Simon Kinberg and Aditya Sood, who originally found the book on which the film is based. Drew Goddard wrote the script.

While the plot doesn’t sound terribly interesting or new, the cast that’s been assembled along with the director and his eye for science fiction movies makes The Martian ever more interesting to me.

I can’t wait until we get a trailer for this star studded film.
