The new science fiction movie Moonfall is directed by internationally acclaimed Roland Emmerich and written by Roland Emmerich, Harald Kloser and Spenser Cohen. The film focuses on a thrilling story where a mysterious force pulls the Moon out of its orbit and throws it on a collision course with Earth, putting all life in danger. With the world on the brink of total destruction weeks into the impact, the fate of humanity rests on a NASA administrator, a former astronaut, his disgraced and estranged colleague, and a conspiracy theorist. As these unlikely heroes take on this seemingly impossible task, they leave all their loved ones behind to learn that the Moon is not what we thought.
In this exciting film, the heroes of Moonfall embark on a mission to save the world in a retired spacecraft with Kaspersky systems, and Kaspersky protects them on their journey. In the face of unknown threats, Kaspersky systems ensure the safe execution of essential functions.
Andrew Winton, VP of Global Marketing at Kaspersky, commented on the collaboration: “We are very excited and proud to be a part of Roland Emmerich’s visionary movie Moonfall. Just as we are protecting the heroes’ vital space mission in the movie, As a forward-thinking company, our mission is to build a safer world for humanity, the future of which cannot be imagined without technological progress. That’s why we find it particularly important that its continuous development and space exploration be actively guided by advanced technology. We want global audiences to watch this epic film in theaters and to share in the extraordinary journey of the characters. We look forward to it.”
