The Walk tells the infamous, true story of Petit (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) who decides that it will be his dream to tightrope walk between the World Trade Centres.

Gordon-Levitt is supported by the beautiful Charlotte Le Bon and the incredible Sir Ben Kingsley and the film is directed by Robert Zemeckis, the award winning genius who was responsible for Back to the Future, Who framed Roger Rabbit and Forest Gump.

Twelve people have walked on the moon, but only one man – Philippe Petit (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) – has ever, or will ever, walk in the immense void between the World Trade Center towers. Guided by his real-life mentor, Papa Rudy (Ben Kingsley), and aided by an unlikely band of international recruits, Petit and his gang overcome long odds, betrayals, dissension and countless close calls to conceive and execute their mad plan.

Robert Zemeckis, the director of such marvels as Forrest Gump, Cast Away, Back to the Future, Polar Express and Flight, again uses cutting edge technology in the service of an emotional, character-driven story.

With innovative photorealistic techniques and IMAX 3D wizardry, The Walk is true big-screen cinema, a chance for moviegoers to viscerally experience the feeling of reaching the clouds. The film, a PG-rated, all-audience entertainment for moviegoers 8 to 80, unlike anything audiences have seen before, is a love letter to Paris and New York City in the 1970s

In my opinion, this should be a beautiful dramatic re-telling of an already breath-taking story.

The movie stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Philippe Petit, Ben Kingsley, Charlotte Le Bon, James Badge Dale, Ben Schwartz.

The Walk will hit the big screens on 2nd October 2015 in the UK.
