The plot: A thirty-mile-long alien spaceship with mysterious origins is set adrift in our Solar System by an unknown intelligence.
And Freeman’s words: “I play the captain of the spaceship Endeavor that is charged with rendezvousing with this thing from outer space to find out what it is [and] what its intentions are,”
I don’t think that anyone would not want this to happen. Everybody loves Morgan Freeman, right? Well… everybody that didn’t see EVAN ALMIGHTY anyway.
