Inferno is a 2016 American mystery thriller film directed by Ron Howard and written by David Koepp, based on the 2013 novel of the same name by Dan Brown. The film is the sequel to The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons, and the third installment in the Robert Langdon film series, and stars Tom Hanks, reprising his role as Robert Langdon, alongside Felicity Jones, Omar Sy, Sidse Babett Knudsen, Ben Foster and Irrfan Khan.

Filming began on April 27, 2015 in Venice, Italy, and wrapped on July 21, 2015 in Budapest. The film premiered in Florence on October 9, 2016 and is scheduled to be released in the United States on October 28, 2016 in 3D, 2D and IMAX formats.[5]

Plot

Harvard University professor Robert Langdon (Tom Hanks) awakens in a hospital room in Florence, Italy, with no memory of what has transpired over the last few days, but being plagued with visions of a Hell-like Earth. Dr. Sienna Brooks (Felicity Jones), one of the doctors tending to him, tells him that he is suffering from amnesia as a result of a bullet wound to his head. All of a sudden, Vayentha, a female assassin, shows up in the hospital. Sienna helps Langdon to escape, and they flee to her apartment.

Among Langdon's personal belongings, Langdon and Sienna find a "Faraday pointer", a miniature image projector, with a modified version of Sandro Botticelli's Map of Hell, which itself is based on Dante's Inferno. They soon realize this is the first clue in a trail left by Bertrand Zobrist, a billionaire geneticist who believed that rigorous measures were necessary to reduce the Earth's growing population, who committed suicide after being chased by armed agents. Langdon and Sienna figure out that Zobrist, who is obsessed with Dante, has created a virus he has dubbed "Inferno", with the potential of decimating the world's population. In the meantime, they have been traced by both the assassin and local law enforcement, who try to raid the appartment. Again, they escape. Langdon's knowledge of Dante's work, history, and hidden passages in Florence allows the two to follow clues such as letters and phrases which lead to various locations in Florence and Venice, while evading the assassin and the authorities. Along the way, Langdon discovers that he stole and hid the Dante Death Mask, a crucial clue, an event he also has no memory of.

In the meantime, it is revealed that the assassin is working for a mysterious "security company" headed by Harry Sims, acting on behalf of Zobrist, who has provided Sims with a video message about the virus, to be broadcast after the virus has been released. The armed authorities turn out to be the World Health Organization (WHO), headed by Elizabeth Sinskey, trying to prevent the release of the virus. Shocked by the video, Sims allies with Sinskey. However, Langdon and Sienna are contacted by Bouchard, a man purporting to be working for the WHO, warning them that Sinskey has a double agenda and is after the Inferno virus for her own profit. The three cooperate for a while, until Langdon realizes that Bouchard's story is a lie and that it is Bouchard who seeks to profit from Inferno. Again, Sienna and Langdon flee. Langdon figures out that the virus is in the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. With that knowledge, Sienna abandons Langdon, after revealing that she was Zobrist's lover and that she will ensure the release of the virus. Zobrist and Sienna used to play treasure hunt games; this trail was the backup plan in case something happened to Zobrist. Langdon is recaptured by Bouchard, but is rescued by Sims and re-teams with Sinskey. It is revealed that Sinskey is Langdon's former romantic interest, and that she asked Langdon for help in interpreting the imagery from the Faraday pointer when he was kidnapped by Sims' men and drugged with benzodiazepine to induce a memory loss; the events in the hospital were all staged.

The virus is in a plastic bag hidden under water in the Basilica Cistern in Istanbul. The WHO team with Langdon, Sims, and Sinskey race to locate and secure the bag while Sienna with two Turkish allies attempts to detonate an explosive that will rupture the bag and aerosolize the virus. The bag is secured just in time, while Sims is killed by Sienna, Langdon confronts Sienna, who commits suicide in an attempt to release the virus, and the two Turkish men are killed. The virus is then taken by the WHO, and Langdon goes back to Florence in order to return the Dante Death Mask.

Cast

Production

On July 16, 2013, Sony Pictures Entertainment set Ron Howard to direct Dan Brown's fourth novel in the Robert Langdon series, Inferno, with David Koepp writing the script.[10] Imagine Entertainment was set to produce the film, while Tom Hanks was again set to reprise his role as Robert Langdon.[10] On August 26, 2014, Sony had finalized the deal with Howard and Hanks, and set the film for April start of production in Italy.[6] Brian Grazer was also set to produce the film with Howard.[6]

On December 2, Felicity Jones was in early talks to join the film.[11] On February 17, 2015, studio revealed the confirmed cast for the film, including Jones as Dr. Sienna Brooks, Omar Sy as Christoph Bruder, Irrfan Khan as Harry "The Provost" Sims, and Sidse Babett Knudsen as Elizabeth Sinskey, head of the World Health Organization.[7] Ben Foster was set for an unspecified villainous role on March 10, 2015, which later revealed to be the role of Bertrand Zobrist.[8]

Differences between the novel and the film

  • In the novel, the Inferno Virus causes sterility in one third of the human population. At the end of the novel, it is revealed that the virus was released before the events of the book and that the search for its whereabouts was futile.
  • In the novel, Dr. Sienna Brooks intends to prevent the virus from being released and to destroy it as she believes Governments and other organisations will use it as a weapon, and, at the end of the novel, she is offered a position in the WHO in order to address the crisis.
  • Dr. Elizabeth Sinskey is not a former romantic interest of Robert Langdon in the novel.

Filming

Filming began on April 27, 2015 in Venice, Italy,[12] and continued in Florence, Italy, starting at the end of April. Outdoor scenes featuring Hanks were filmed near the Palazzo Vecchio and elsewhere in the historic center of the city, starting on May 2, 2015. Some second unit stunts were filmed at an apartment building close to the Ponte Vecchio, in Florence. Low-flying aerial shots of Florence landmarks, its river and bridges were filmed on May 11, 2015.[13] A sequence displayed in an early trailer features a Padova railway station sign, but locals immediately recognized the scene as recreated somewhere else.[14] As of June 5, 2015, most of the film was planned to be shot in Budapest, Hungary at Korda Studios.[15] Filming wrapped on July 21, 2015.[16]

During location filming, its production codename was "Headache", which may be a reference to a concussion suffered by Langdon early in the story.[13][17]

Release

In July 2013, Sony set the film for a December 18, 2015, release.[10] However, due to the date clash with Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the release date was moved from December 18, 2015, to October 14, 2016.[18] In early 2016, the release date was moved to October 28, 2016.[19] The film will be available in both 2D and 3D formats.[20] On May 9, 2016, Sony Pictures released the first teaser trailer for the film.[21] The film premiered in Florence, Italy on October 8, 2016, at the New Opera Theater.[22] The film premiered in India on October 13, 2016 due to the popularity of actor Irrfan Khan.[23]

Box office

In the United States, Inferno is expected to top the box office with around $25 million in its opening weekend.[24][25]

Russia similarly opened to $4.4 million, followed by the United Kingdom and Ireland ($3.8 million), Spain ($2 million) and the Netherlands ($1.2 million).[3] Inferno's £2.97 million debut in the U.K. is a considerable step down from the first (£9.50 million) and the second film (£6.05 million).[26]

In Latin America, the film debuted in first in all 11 markets, earning a combined $9 million. Brazil led with $4 million, followed by Mexico ($2.6 million).[3] Similary in South East Asia, it saw top openings in six out of seven markets for a combined $6 million. Taiwan ($1.7 million), India ($1.3 million) and Indonesia ($1 million) posted the biggest debuts.[3] In the Oceania region, Australia launched with $1.8 million. Inferno opened to number one across the Middle East for a regional total of $1.8 million.[3]

The film is yet to open in major markets like China (October 28), Japan (October 28) and France (November 9).[3]
