Titan A.E. (My Version)

Titan A.E. is a 2000 American animated post-apocalyptic science fiction action film produced by Warner Bros. Feature Animation and DreamWorks Animation and directed by Brad Bird in his directorial debut. It was scripted by Bird, Joss Whedon, Ben Edlund and John August from a story treatment by Hans Bauer and Randall McCormick. The film features the voices of Matt Damon, Drew Barrymore, Bill Pullman, Nathan Lane, John Leguizamo, and Janeane Garofalo. Set in 3028 A.D., the vicious alien race Drej destroys all life on Earth. 15 years after the destruction of Earth, Cale Tucker (Matt Damon) begins the mission to find Titan, a massive lost spaceship built by his father and intended to save the surviving human race with the help of Akima Kunimoto (Drew Barrymore) and Captain Joseph Korso (Bill Pullman).

The film's development began in 1995 as a musical with the involvement of Amblin Entertainment's Steven Spielberg, though the project took root once Bird signed on as director and hired Whedon, Edlund and August to write the screenplay in 1997. The film was animated using traditional animation, with computer-generated imagery to animate the Titan, Drej and other effects from Industrial Light & Magic and Pacific Data Images (PDI). The understaffed crew of the film completed it with half of the time and budget of other animated features. Harry Gregson-Williams and John Powell composed the film's score, following their work on the 1998 computer-animated insect adventure film Antz, which was released by DreamWorks.

Titan A.E. premiered in Los Angeles, California on June 13, 2000, and was released by Warner Bros. Pictures in North America and internationally by DreamWorks Pictures through United International Pictures on June 16, 2000.
