Experience the view from "The Walk" on Oct 14!



Twelve people have walked on the moon.  Only one has ever, or will ever, walk in the immense void between the World Trade Center towers.


Philippe Petit (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), guided by his real-life mentor, Papa Rudy (Ben Kingsley), is aided by an unlikely band of international recruits, who overcome long odds, betrayals, dissension and countless close calls to conceive and execute their mad plan.  Robert Zemeckis, the master director of such marvels as Forrest Gump, Cast Away, Back to the Future, Polar Express and Flight, again uses cutting edge technology in the service of an emotional, character-driven story.  With innovative photorealistic techniques and IMAX 3D wizardry, The Walk is genuine big-screen cinema, a chance for moviegoers to viscerally experience the feeling of reaching the clouds.



It is also one of the rare live-action films that is a PG-rated, all-audience entertainment for moviegoers 8 to 80 – and a triumphant true story to boot.  It is unlike anything audiences have seen before, a love letter to Paris and New York City in the 1970s, but most of all, to the towers of the World Trade Center.



TriStar Pictures presents in association with LStar Capital, an ImageMovers production, The Walk.  Starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ben Kingsley, Charlotte Le Bon, James Badge Dale.  Directed by Robert Zemeckis.  Produced by Steve Starkey, Robert Zemeckis, and Jack Rapke.  The Screenplay is by Robert Zemeckis & Christopher Browne, based on the book “To Reach the Clouds” by Philippe Petit.  Executive Producers are Cherylanne Martin, Jacqueline Levine, and Ben Waisbren.  The Director of Photography is Dariusz Wolski, ASC.  The Production Designer is Naomi Shohan.  Edited by Jeremiah O’Driscoll.  The Costume Designer is Suttirat Larlarb.  The Visual Effects Supervisor is Kevin Baillie.  Music by Alan Silvestri.





An impossible, but true story, the new film from Robert Zemeckis, The Walk is a live-action, PG-rated entertainment for all audiences, ages 8 to 80.  A love letter to the World Trade Center, the film is a 3D and IMAX visual experience, unlike anything audiences have seen.







THE WALK opens in IMAX 3D, Digital 3D and 2D cinemas across the Philippines on Oct. 14.
