Apple TV+ confirms December launch date for Scarlett Johansson romcom Fly Me to the Moon

Fly Me To The Moon

Apple TV+ is taking romance to the stars with the global streaming debut of Fly Me to the Moon on December 6. The movie, directed by Greg Berlanti and starring Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum, is set against the historic backdrop of NASA’s Apollo 11 moon landing.

Johansson stars as Kelly Jones, a savvy marketing maven tasked with fixing NASA’s public image, while Tatum plays Cole Davis, a no-nonsense launch director juggling the pressures of a mission too important to fail.

Sparks fly, and not just from the rocket, when Kelly’s modern tactics clash with Cole’s old-school approach, setting the stage for a countdown filled with comedy, conflict, and charm.

The film features a screenplay by Rose Gilroy, with Johansson pulling double duty as both star and producer.

Apple TV+ is available on a wide variety of platforms, including iPhones and popular smart TV services from Google, Samsung, LG, Sony, TCL and others.
