It keeps the same premise but follows an alternative plot where three people gather data on Earth to locate a rogue satellite. The game is a turn-based puzzler and generally has very positive reviews. This was Skydance's second project to not be released by Paramount. Instead, Warner Bros. produced the film. The idea of catastrophic consequences of weather control by space-based stations is also a major plot point in Das Arche Noah Prinzip (1984), the directorial debut of Dean Devlin's long time collaborator, Roland Emmerich. The film was originally set up at Paramount before getting moved to Warner Bros. The film was set to be released on March 25, 2016. However, later in August 2014, Warner Bros. cancelled the March 2016 date and replaced Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) with its original date. On December 11, 2014, the studio shifted its live-action animated film The Jungle Book (2016) and gave its previous date of October 21, 2016 to Geostorm (2017). In September 2015, the studio again moved back the film to release on January 13, 2017. Lastly, it once again rescheduled to an October 20, 2017 release date per its trailer on the Kong Skull Island dvd. Some of the NASA scenes were filmed at the NASA facility in New Orleans, Louisiana. The film underwent re-shoots under the auspices of Jerry Bruckheimer, who was brought in in a producer capacity at a very late stage. Reportedly, these extensive re-shoots, featuring new material written by Laeta Kalogridis, were helmed by "CSI" alumnus Danny Cannon over a two-week period at a cost of $15M. This was Dean Devlin's feature directorial debut.
