In 1974, French high-wire artist Philippe Petit (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) had an extraordinary dream -- to walk between the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York City. The Walk, written by Robert Zemeckis and Christopher Browne, based on Petit's book To Reach the Clouds, and directed by Zemeckis, utilizes cutting-edge technology to tell the story of Petit and his unlikely team as they attempt to realize this seemingly impossible dream.
Watch this Fandango Movieclips exclusive clip that shows how Petit's dream began to become a reality... and don't look down!
The Walk will be released in IMAX 3D and other select large-format theaters on September 30 and will be in wide release on October 9.
