The film stars Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Angelina Jolie. It is set in New York, New York in an alternate 1939 and is a science fiction adventure film. It is the first movie to be shot with actors entirely in front of a bluescreen, with all the sets and nearly all of the props computer-generated. The actors spent only 28 days in principal photography. The role of the villain, Dr. Totenkopf, is "played" by Sir Laurence Olivier, who died in 1989; archive footage of him from the 1940s was manipulated by computer to allow him to make this posthumous film appearance, with another actor dubbing his voice.
