Exploring the deserted landscapes through the cinematic universe of Asteroid City
The cinematic universe of Asteroid City offers viewers an unforgettable visual experience with its striking and breathtaking landscapes.
With locations like Arizona's sprawling desert fields or Spain's captivating Chinchón terrain, this movie will set up an excellent foundation for its transformative storyline to unfold.
1) Arizona, United States
Asteroid City has been shot against a fitting backdrop in Arizona due to its famed desolate landscapes and amber-clay mountains that amaze visitors with their distant vistas. The desert setting provides ample opportunity for audiences to feel strangely isolated among inhospitable terrains that blend seamlessly with this sci-fi movie's retro-futuristic concept.
Further enhancing visuals are striking landmarks like those exclusive flora species that exist within harsh conditions created by sun-drenched soils unique only to the Sonoran Region. Remarkably, grounded realism integrates into the movie, using Midge Campbell's family home as one example of resting amid these expanse confines in the interstellar adventures featured onscreen.
2) Chinchón, Spain
An exquisite display of traditional Spanish architecture and proximity to busy Madrid, Chinchón will endear viewers to an international voyage in Asteroid City. Throughout this journey, there is a stark contrast between Arizona's barren terrain and Chinchón's picturesque views. The science fiction movie will bring an unmatched liveliness to Spain’s environment, which is otherwise alienated from deserts.
The upcoming movie will exquisitely capture the imagination that Chinchón's pretentious train station ignites, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the narrative. The filming required remarkable coordination at a local level, demonstrating a strong commitment to precision from camera equipment to administrative details.
They were particularly devoted to ensuring the location was captured vividly as intended. In doing so, they effortlessly transformed Spain's landscapes, establishing a beautiful combination of astrophysical landscapes in the film.
In August 2021, the primary filming kicked off and continued for several subsequent months. Even though the COVID-19 pandemic posed significant challenges, the production team ensured to take all necessary safety precautions to provide a secure shooting setup.
The upcoming film features a strong line-up of a seasoned cast that includes Jason Schwartzman, who will portray Augie Steenbeck, a war photographer and father, and Tom Hanks, who will play Stanley Zak, Augie’s father-in-law, and Scarlett Johansson as Midge Campbell.
The film's ensemble cast also includes Tilda Swinton, Bryan Cranston, Adrien Brody, Liev Schreiber, Maya Hawke, Jeffrey Wright, Hope Davis, Steve Park, Rupert Friend, Edward Norton, Steve Carell, Matt Dillon, Hong Chau, Willem Dafoe, Margot Robbie, Tony Revolori, Jake Ryan, and Jeff Goldblum.
Asteroid City is slated for release on June 16, 2023, in theaters, followed by a wide release on June 23, 2023.
