Chinese films don't get bigger than this. Released in 2019, the stunning sci-fi blockbuster The Wandering Earth earned over 4.6 billion yuan to become one of China's highest-grossing films of all time. Directed by Frant Gwo ( My Old Classmate ), the ambitious interstellar spectacular is a game changer for China's sci-fi genre. Based on the same-titled award-winning novel by Liu Cixin, The Wandering Earth is set in a future in which Earth must confront the perilous reality of a dying sun. To save the future of humanity, the governments of the world band together and launch a massive undertaking: build enormous rocket thrusters to propel and gradually migrate Earth out of the solar system to a new home, a journey that will take 2,500 years. Wu Jing, who is also an investor of the film, plays a Chinese astronaut aboard the space station that acts as the navigator for Earth's journey. New-generation actor Qu Chuxiao ( Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace ) plays his rebellious son Liu Qi, who is part of the surviving Earth population that has been moved underground. When something goes wrong with the planetary thrusters, throwing Earth on a collision course towards Jupiter, it's up to Liu Qi and a ragtag group of soldiers and scientists to save humanity.
