Gary Nelson Director

previously directed Freaky Friday

A small crew of deep-space explorers stumble upon a ship thought lost for decades, now teetering on the edge of a black hole and commanded by an obsessed scientist and his sinister robot.

Trivia:

Disney initially wanted to build a simulator ride at Disneyland based on the movie, after it's poor box office performance however they decided to make one based on Star Wars instead. Star Tours was the resulting project.

Quote: Dr. Hans Reinhardt

The word impossible, Mr. Booth, is only found in the dictionary of fools.
