World Premiere of Walt Disney Pictures / Walden Media ALIENS OF THE DEEP

World Premiere of Walt Disney Pictures / Walden Media ALIENS OF THE DEEP Thursday, January 20th at Universal CityWalk IMAX Theatre WHO: From the film: Co-director/producer James Cameron, co-director Steven Quale, producer Andrew Wight, marine biologist Dijanna Figueroa and astrobiologist Dr. Tori Hoehler. Special Guests: Teri Hatcher and more ... WHAT: To celebrate the World Premiere Benefit of WALT DISNEY PICTURES/WALDEN MEDIA'S 'ALIENS OF THE DEEP' James Cameron, Academy Award(R) winning director, deep ocean adventurer, and space exploration visionary, combines his talents and his passions in the upcoming spectacular 3D film Aliens of the Deep. Cameron takes audiences to one of the Earth's most extreme environments -- the depths of the ocean -- to encounter the alien-like creatures that live there. He's joined in the journey by a team of young oceanographers and NASA space researchers who share his interests and excitement as they help us consider the correlation between life under water and the life we may one day find in outer space. Aliens of the Deep presents the dramatic and visually-stunning highlights of a series of expeditions to deep-ocean hydrothermal vents, phenomenal oases where super-heated, chemically-charged water gives life to some of the strangest animals on earth: 6-foot tall worms with blood-red plumes; blind white crabs; and an astonishing biomass of white shrimp, all competing to find just the right location in the flow of super-heated water or to fry trying. They are as close to alien life as anything seen on Earth -- a clue to what might exist elsewhere in the universe. The adventure carries audiences on a journey deep into space and helps them imagine what it will be like to meet aliens face to face. Directed by James Cameron and Steven Quale.
