In the year 2159 two classes of people exist: the very wealthy who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth. Secretary Rhodes (Jodie Foster), a hard the government official, will stop at nothing to enforce anti-immigration laws and preserve the luxurious lifestyle of the citizens of Elysium. That doesn’t stop the people of Earth from trying to get in, by any means they can. When unlucky Max (Matt Damon) is backed into a corner, he agrees to take on a daunting mission that if successful will not only save his life, but could bring equality to these polarized worlds.
Neill Blomkamps kommande film som utspelar sig i 150 år in i framtiden och sägs vara snarlik hans tidigare film, District 9. Hans egna ord om handlingen: "totally original," "very violent, and very unique." "It is absolutely another science fiction film, quite different from District 9, but some of the blending of genres and the tone might be within the same realm."
Inspelningen börjar i vår i Kanada och förflyttas sedan till Mexiko. Intressant är att Syd Mead, som skapade mycket av den futuristiska scenografin i Blade Runner, är inblandad i projektet. Matt Damon, Jodie Foster, Sharlto Copley (District 9) och Wagner Moura är castade och sen vet vi inte så mycket mer i dagsläget.
