December 6th, 2023 sees the opening of an exciting Apollo Remastered collaboration with Tom Hanks, Christopher Riley and 59 Productions at London’s Lightroom. Along with a musical score by Anne Nikitin, there may be no better way to experience the Apollo Remastered imagery than in this epic immersive experience, at one of the world’s finest such venues.

Hanks, a huge Apollo enthusiast, played Jim Lovell in Apollo 13, produced the HBO miniseries ‘From the Earth to the Moon’ and co-wrote the IMAX film ‘Magnificent Desolation: Walking on the Moon 3D’, but he believes this collaboration has produced, "the most visceral and enthralling story to date of humanity’s journeys beyond our Earth."

The Moonwalkers will combine original NASA footage with images from the bestselling photography book “Apollo Remastered”, in which restorer Andy Saunders (who is a consultant producer on the project) remastered original film from the Apollo missions.

It will take place at London’s Lightroom in King’s Cross – the Haworth Tompkins-designed space that is fast becoming the capital’s home of huge artist-led shows – the space launched in January with David Hockney: Bigger and Closer (not smaller & further away).

The Moonwalkers is an epic immersive experience that will combine original NASA footage of the Apollo landings and photos from Andy Saunders’ stunning photobook “Apollo Remastered” with an original score from Anne Nikitin. Plus, of course, lots of Hanks.

What do you get when you combine the production house that converted the Washington Monument into a Saturn V rocket, the recently reworked imagery of "Apollo Remastered" and the actor who made "Houston, we have a problem" a household phrase? An immersive, nearly hour-long experience offering a unique new perspective on humanity's past and future voyages to the moon.

Between the clarity of Saunders' images and the scale of Lightroom's projections, "The Moonwalkers" promises to not only re-introduce visitors to the wonders of the moon, but transport them virtually to the lunar surface. Or, as Hanks described it, produce "the most visceral and enthralling story to date of humanity's journeys beyond our Earth."
