Produced by Patrick Aiello and Timur Bekmambetov, H.G. Wells’ sci-fi classic War of the Worlds is reimagined as a “screenlife” movie, set to hit Prime Video next week. Starring Ice Cube as Will Radford, a top-level cybersecurity expert for Homeland Security, he witnesses the emergence of a hostile alien force through the information available to him via his surveillance access. Eva Longoria, Clark Gregg, Andrea Savage, Henry Hunter Hall, Iman Benson, Devon Bostick, and Michael O’Neill co-star. Rich Lee directed the movie. Most of the “screenlife” movies have been horror-related, like the Unfriended series, so we’ll see if the format works for a sci-fi movie.  War of the Worlds is out on July 30th next week, and you can check out the trailer below.
