Details of Disney's 'Tomorrowland' Laid Bare
May 18, 2009 01:05:14Screenwriters, Jon Lucas and Scott Moore, have finished a draft for "Tomorrowland" and shared details to the press gathering in the junket of "The Hangover". At the event held Sunday, May 17, in Las Vegas, they teased on what year the film will be taking place and what kind of story they were developing.
Asked about when the movie is set, Moore revealed that it will take place about 350 years in the future. On the reason why, Lucas added as quoted by Sci Fi Wire, "It's hard, because when you go back and watch good sci-fi, it's like the year 2010, and we're in 2010, and Kevin Costner's not walking a mule around. You have to put it far enough that people in the theater aren't openly laughing at the concept, but it can't be so far. Things are changing so quickly that in 300 years things will probably be pretty unrecognizable."
