Space Cadet | Film Screening

Thursday, June 27, 2024
1:00 pm
*Included in general admission

Join us for an exclusive film screening of the new movie, Space Cadet, in our Space Center Theater!

Space Cadet

Tiffany “Rex” Simpson (Emma Roberts) has always dreamed of going to space, but life isn’t going quite as planned. Determined to turn things around, she aims high and with the embellishing touch of her supportive best friend Nadine (Poppy Liu), her “doctored” application lands her in NASA’s ultra-competitive astronaut training program. In over her head and lacking scientific expertise, Rex relies on her quick wits, moxie and determination to get to the top of her class. NASA program directors Pam (Gabrielle Union) and Logan (Tom Hopper) certainly take notice, but can this Florida girl get through training and into the cosmos before she blows her cover? Written and directed by Liz W. Garcia (“P-Valley,” “The Sinner”), Space Cadet is a comedy about the power of being yourself, following your dreams and shooting for the stars.
