A new immersive experience about man’s previous and future journeys to the moon, written and narrated by Tom Hanks, will open in London in December.

The Moonwalkers: A Journey with Tom Hanks will open at London’s Lightroom on 6th December.

It is said to offer a “unique perspective on humankind’s past and future voyages to the moon.”

It will utilise original NASA footage alongside images from Andy Saunders’ Apollo Remastered, the highest-selling book about the Apollo programme, and newly filmed interviews between Hanks and astronauts of the current Artemis programme.

Speaking about the show, the Oscar-winning actor said: “Growing up as humankind was first going to the moon, I was transfixed by the Apollo missions and dreamed of making the voyages with the astronauts. I’ve worked on several projects that have attempted to bring alive the breathtaking scale of going to the moon and the razor-edge drama of each journey, each chapter of Apollo.

“The extraordinary and unique production capabilities of Lightroom allow me, alongside Christopher Riley, to tell what we believe is the most visceral and enthralling story to date of humanity’s journeys beyond our earth, including a unique insight into the next time human beings will walk on the moon: the Artemis missions.”
