Engineer Rory Adams rescues Hugh, but Calvin grabs onto his leg, prompting physician David Jordan to lock Rory in the lab. Calvin then escapes its enclosure and devours a lab rat, growing in size. While being provoked, Calvin becomes hostile, wrapping itself around Hugh's hand and crushing it. Hugh realizes that Calvin's cells can change their specialization, acting as muscle, neuron, and photosensory cells all at once. From its samples, exobiologist Hugh Derry revives a dormant cell that quickly grows into a multi-celled organism that US schoolchildren name "Calvin". The probe is intercepted by the International Space Station. In the near future, an uncrewed space probe returns from Mars to Earth orbit with soil samples potentially containing evidence of extraterrestrial life. The film grossed over $100 million worldwide against a $58 million budget. It received mostly positive reviews, with praise for its acting, visuals and screenplay, but was compared unfavorably with films like Alien (1979). The only co-production between Skydance Media and Sony Pictures, the film had its world premiere at South by Southwest on March 18, 2017, and was theatrically released in the United States by Columbia Pictures on March 24, 2017.
The visual effects were handled by DNEG, Industrial Light & Magic, NVIZIBLE, One of Us, Outpost VFX and Atomic Fiction. The casting call took place in January 2016, and filming took place in France, New York City and Vietnam between February and July. After the deal with Paramount Pictures was not confirmed, Sony Pictures signed on to handle the worldwide distribution rights and co-finance the film, with Skydance in March 2016. The development of Life began in November 2015, when it was announced that Espinosa would direct a film set in space, with Wernick and Reese writing the screenplay. When members of the crew conduct their research, the rapidly evolving life-form proves far more intelligent and terrifying. In the film, a six-member crew of the International Space Station uncovers the first evidence of extraterrestrial life on Mars.
Life is a 2017 American science fiction horror film directed by Daniel Espinosa, written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick and starring an ensemble cast consisting of Jake Gyllenhaal, Ryan Reynolds, Rebecca Ferguson, Hiroyuki Sanada, Ariyon Bakare and Olga Dihovichnaya.
