To celebrate the highly anticipated release of HIDDEN FIGURES, winner of the outstanding performance by a cast in a motion picture SAG Award, Twentieth Century Fox has released two new videos.
In the clip entitled “Give Or Take” below, we see Katherine Johnson (Taraji P. Henson) using her phenomenal skills to solve John Glenn’s landing zone:
Also, you can take a look at the ‘Modern Figures: Elena Poniatowska‘ featurette below, where ex Journalist Elena Poniatowska shares her own struggle trying to make it as a woman in the world of journalism and how the work of Katherine Johnson has inspired her life and how important it is to be recognised.
HIDDEN FIGURES stars Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer, Janelle Monáe, Kirsten Dunst, Jim Parsons, Mahershala Ali, Aldis Hodge, Glen Powell and Kevin Costner and is directed by Theodore Melfi. In the clip below entitled ‘Slice Of Pie’, we see Mary (Janelle Monáe) and Dorothy (Octavia Spencer) introduce Katherine Johnson (Taraji P. Henson) to the dashing Colonel Jim Johnson (Mahershala Ali).
HIDDEN FIGURES is the incredible untold story of Katherine Johnson (Taraji P. Henson), Dorothy Vaughn (Octavia Spencer) and Mary Jackson (Janelle Monáe)—brilliant African-American women working at NASA, who served as the brains behind one of the greatest operations in history: the launch of astronaut John Glenn into orbit, a stunning achievement that restored the nation’s confidence, turned around the Space Race, and galvanised the world. The visionary trio crossed all gender and race lines to inspire generations to dream big.
