About This Film

What do an octopus, an Oscar winner, and a blockbuster star have in common? Look no further than Olivia Newman’s adaptation of Remarkably Bright Creatures, the debut novel by Shelby Van Pelt that spent more than 64 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list.

A widow who works at a local aquarium finds joy again when she forms an unlikely bond with a giant Pacific octopus and a wayward young man who comes to town in search of family. Together, they uncover a mystery that will lead them to a life-changing discovery and restore their sense of wonder.

Two-time Academy Award–winning actor Sally Field will play the widow Tova, with Lewis Pullman co-starring. Also in the cast: Colm Meaney, Joan Chen, Kathy Baker, Beth Grant, Sofia Black-D’Elia.
