Older mainland movie fans may remember that there was a story about a little boy driving an alien flying saucer 8 years later.
Yes, it is “Flight of the Navigator” released in 1986.
Now Disney will restart “Flight of the Navigator”, and the protagonist will be changed from a boy to a girl.
The director is determined to be the actress Bryce Dallas Howard of Jurassic World, and she will also serve as the restart producer.
“Flight of the Navigator” has not announced the cast yet, but it has been confirmed that it will exclusively launch Disney+ streaming media.
The background of the original “Flight of the Navigator” was set in 1978. A 12-year-old boy, David Freeman, accidentally fell into a deep valley on his way home from the forest.
When he regained consciousness and returned home, he unexpectedly discovered that the house was a stranger, and it was 1986, eight years later.
The 12-year-old David finally found his relatives.
His parents couldn’t believe this fact. His brother Jeff, who was 4 years younger than David, is now older than David.
At the same time this strange incident happened, NASA discovered that an outer spacecraft had landed on the earth.
They believed that this had something to do with David’s experience, so they took David to the test, hoping to find the relationship between the two events and solve all mysteries.
Unexpectedly, David would actually establish a friendship with this magical spaceship and begin their series of adventures soaring into the sky.
