Cast: Hugh Jackman, Rachel Weisz, Ellen Burstyn

Crew: Darren Aronofsky (director/co-writer), Ari Handel (co-writer), Eric Watson (producer).

Release Date: 2006

Studio: New Regency & Warner Bros.

Plot: When asked about the film Darren said, "It's a post-Matrix, metaphysical Sci-Fi movie, and it's very different to anything you've seen. I call it post-Matrix because Matrix reinvented sci-fi in the same way Star Wars did, or 2001. I'm in a new environment, I'm trying to figure out what type of film would play to an audience now, and I think we came up with something really cool."

Note: The Fountain was also referred to as Darren's Untitled Scifi Film, as the title was not revealed for sometime. It was also previously called Last Man.
