Directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel, The Invasion stars Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig in a sci-fi thriller based on Jack Finneys book The Body Snatchers. Kidman plays a Washington psychiatrist who discovers that an alien infection is changing human behaviour and spreading through the population. The film reworks the classic body-snatcher premise with paranoia, epidemic imagery and a race to protect her son before the transformation becomes irreversible.

DO NOT TRUST ANYONE.

Since its first publication in 1955, Jack Finneys classic sci-fi/horror novel The Body Snatchers has inspired numerous adaptations and created a whole subgenre of era-defining alien doppelgangers in books, film, and TV. 2007s The Invasion was ahead of the curve, its eerily predictive shift toward a virus-like contagion more frighteningly resonant in a post-pandemic world.

A space shuttle crashes to Earth carrying an alien organism. Soon people are changing, becoming detached and emotionless. People like CDC director Tucker Kaufman (Jeremy Northam) who is investigating the crash. Meanwhile his ex-wife, psychiatrist Carol Bennell (Nicole Kidman), sees the same behaviour in a friend of their son, and a patient claims that her husband is no longer her husband. As people all across Washington D.C. become infected and the insidious epidemic spreads, Carol must fight to protect herself and her son, who might just hold the key to stopping the escalating invasion.

Produced by Joel Silver, and also starring Daniel Craig, Jeffrey Wright, and Veronica Cartwright, this edge-of-your-seat thriller is accompanied by a wealth of new and archival extras.
