当代享有盛誉的物理学家斯蒂芬-霍金(Stephen Hawking)将客串一部超大银幕的立体电影《超越地平线》，讲述他的宇宙起源及宇宙的命运等物理学理论。这部影片的具体发行日期尚未确定，但是据估计可能会很卖座，大家掏钱买票可能只是为了看一下霍金在影片中的表演。竞学网影视英语频道与你一道关注。
　　这部名为《超越地平线》（Beyond the Horizon）的影片旨在解释由霍金和其同事共同论证的一些复杂的物理学理论。影片讲述了一位虚构的《泰晤士报》记者奥利维亚前去采访霍金，准备写一篇特写。奥利维亚是一位科学怀疑论者，认为科学无法解释关于生命的一些重大问题。然而，她采访了霍金，收获颇丰，真正地了解到时空和宇宙的起源。

"My goal is simple,it is a complete understanding of the universe,why it is as it is and why it exists at all"
                                                                            ——Stephen Hawking

From the age of the earliest cave dwellers, to the Babylonians and the Greeks, the world’s great temples, art, and literature sought to bring the public closer to the cosmos. It is impossible to date the beginning of humankind’s fascination with the stars and the world beyond them. Now, the world’s most important large-format filmmakers, scientists, and visualization specialists have come together to create Stephen Hawking's Beyond the Horizon.

Using the dynamic large screen format, Stephen Hawking will take the audience on an incomparable scientific journey beyond the horizons of the Universe. Utilizing cutting-edge computer graphic imagery, the experience will reveal aspects of his latest theoretical work dealing with the origin and destiny of the Universe.

Since 1974, nearly 20 space-related large-format films have been produced. None has attempted, however, to represent the complexity of the cosmos. No other film has been driven by Professor Hawking’s perseverance to popularize complex science. Earlier space-related films have literally prepared the way for Stephen Hawking’s Beyond the Horizon.

The Story tagline is that:Olivia is a twenty-something reporter in 2005 assigned to the religion beat for the London Times. She is on deadline to write a feature story about cosmology and the meaning of existence on the 100th anniversary of Einstein's proposing the special theory of relativity.

Olivia is scheduled to interview the "rock star" of cosmologists, Stephen Hawking. A skeptic when it comes to scientific facts, she firmly believes science holds no meaning for the Big Questions of life. The interview with Stephen Hawking leads to more than Olivia bargained for-a whirlwind journey through time and space, where deep space images explode onto the big screen and where the "Big Questions" are answered for Olivia and the audience with ease and whimsy.
