Hathaway, Jessica Chastain and Michael Caine. The film features a crew
of astronauts who travel through a wormhole in search of a new home for
humanity.
Making: Brothers Christopher and Jonathan Nolan wrote the
screenplay, merging a script Jonathan developed in 2007 with
Christopher's ideas. Christopher Nolan produced the film with his wife,
Emma Thomas, and Lynda Obst. Theoretical physicist Kip Thorne, whose
work inspired the film, acted as scientific consultant and executive
producer.

McConaughey (“Dallas Buyers Club”), Oscar winner Anne Hathaway (“Les
Miserables”), Oscar nominee Jessica Chastain (“Zero Dark Thirty”), Bill
Irwin (“Rachel Getting Married”), Oscar winner Ellen Burstyn (“Alice
Doesn’t Live Here Anymore”), and Oscar winner Michael Caine (“The Cider
House Rules”). The main cast also includes Wes Bentley, Casey Affleck,
David Gyasi, Mackenzie Foy and Topher Grace.
Directed by Christopher Nolan, the film is written by
Jonathan Nolan and Christopher Nolan. Emma Thomas, Christopher Nolan and
Lynda Obst produced “Interstellar,” with Jordan Goldberg, Jake Myers,
Kip Thorne and Thomas Tull serving as executive producers.
Development and financing: Spielberg moved his production
company DreamWorks in 2009 from Paramount to The Walt Disney Company,
and Paramount needed a new director for Interstellar. Jonathan Nolan
recommended his brother Christopher, who joined the project in 2012.
Christopher Nolan met with Kip Thorne, then attached as executive
producer, to discuss the use of spacetime in the story. In January
2013, Paramount and Warner Bros. announced that Christopher Nolan was in
negotiations to direct Interstellar. Nolan said he wanted to
encourage the goal of human spaceflight. He intended to write a
screenplay based on his own idea that he would merge with his brother's
screenplay. By the following March, Nolan was confirmed to direct
Interstellar, which would be produced under his label Syncopy and Lynda
Obst Productions. The Hollywood Reporter said Nolan will earn a
salary of $20 million against 20% of what Interstellar grosses. To
research for the film, Nolan visited NASA as well as the private space
program SpaceX
Casting: Director Christopher Nolan said he became
interested in casting Matthew McConaughey after seeing him in an early
cut of the 2012 film Mud, which he had an opportunity to see since
he was friends with one of its producers, Aaron Ryder. While
McConaughey was in New Orleans, Louisiana, filming for the TV series
True Detective, Nolan invited the actor to visit him at his home. Anne
Hathaway was also invited to Nolan's home, where she read the script for
Interstellar. Paramount announced in April 2013 that both actors
were cast in the film's starring roles. Nolan called McConaughey's
character an everyman with whom "the audience could experience the
story". Jessica Chastain was contacted while she was filming Miss
Julie in Northern Ireland, and a script was delivered to her. Matt
Damon was cast in late August 2013 in a supporting role and filmed his
scenes in Iceland.
Filming: Nolan filmed Interstellar with anamorphic 35mm and IMAX film photography. Cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema was hired for Interstellar, as Wally Pfister, Nolan's cinematographer on all of his past films, was working on his directorial debut, Transcendence. IMAX cameras were used for Interstellar more than for any of Nolan's previous films. To minimize the use of computer-generated imagery, the director had practical locations built, such as the interior of a space shuttle. Van Hoytema retooled an IMAX camera to be handheld for shooting interior scenes.[6] Some of the film's sequences were shot with an IMAX camera installed in the nosecone of a Learjet
Locations: Usa, Canada, Iceland

Production design: The Endurance spacecraft (left) is based on the International Space Station (right).
Interstellar features three spacecraft: the Ranger, the Endurance, and the Lander. The Ranger's function is similar to the Space Shuttle's, being able to enter and exit planetary atmospheres. The Endurance, the crew's mother ship, has a circular structure formed by 12 capsules: four with planetary colonization equipment, four with engines, and four with the permanent functions of cockpit, medical labs and habitation. Production designer Nathan Crowley said the Endurance was based on the International Space Station: "It's a real mish-mash of different kinds of technology. You need analogue stuff as well as digital stuff, you need back-up systems and tangible switches. It's really like a submarine in space. Every inch of space is used, everything has a purpose." Lastly, the Lander transports the capsules with colonization equipment to planetary surfaces. Crowley compared it to "a heavy Russian helicopter".
The film also features two robots, CASE and TARS. Nolan wanted to avoid making the robots anthropomorphic and chose a five-foot quadrilateral design. The director said: "It has a very complicated design philosophy. It's based on mathematics. You've got four main blocks and they can be joined in three ways. So you have three combinations you follow. But then within that, it subdivides into a further three joints. And all the places we see lines—those can subdivide further. So you can unfold a finger, essentially, but it's all proportional." Actor Bill Irwin voiced and physically controlled both robots, but his image was digitally removed from the film and his voicing for CASE was replaced

Marketing: The teaser trailer for Interstellar debuted
December 14, 2013 and featured clips related to space exploration,
accompanied by a voiceover by Matthew McConaughey's character of
Cooper. The theatrical trailer debuted May 5, 2014 at the Lockheed
Martin IMAX Theater and was made available online later that month. For
the week ending May 19 it was the most-viewed movie trailer, with over

Promotions: In October 2014, Paramount partnered with
Google to promote Interstellar across multiple platforms. The film's
website was relaunched to be a digital hub hosted on a Google
domain. The website collected feedback from film audiences, and
linked to a mobile app.[66] The app featured a game in which players
could build solar system models and use a flight simulator for space
travel.[67] The Paramount-Google partnership also included a virtual
time capsule compiled with user-generated content to be available in
2015. The initiative Google for Education will also use the film as a
basis for promoting lesson plans for math science in schools around the
united states.
