Sunshine is a 2007 British science fiction film directed by Danny Boyle and written by Alex Garland. The film, set in 2057, follows the crew of a spacecraft equipped with a payload to re-ignite our dying Sun, which threatens Earth. The crew is made up of an ensemble cast including Cillian Murphy, Rose Byrne, Cliff Curtis, Chris Evans, Troy Garity, Hiroyuki Sanada, Benedict Wong and Michelle Yeoh.

The film was Danny Boyle's first venture into the science fiction genre when he was drawn to Alex Garland's proposed premise. The director and the screenwriter formulated a script that was based on a scientific back-story and that would take its characters on a psychological journey in their mission. Boyle excluded romantic and comedic elements from the script, believing that they did not fit with the science fiction genre. The director cast a group of international actors for the film based on advice from space programs. Boyle had the actors live together and learn topics for their roles together to emulate method acting. Filming took place in East London, England and lasted for 15 weeks. Boyle cited previous science fiction films as influence in the making of Sunshine, including Solaris, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and Alien. To have the actors realistically react to visual effects that would be implemented in post-production, the filmmakers constructed live sets to serve as cues. The post-production process was prolonged due to Boyle's unorthodox preference to hire one VFX company for the film.

Sunshine was released in the United Kingdom on 6 April 2007 and in the United States on 20 July 2007. The film grossed £3,175,911 in the UK over twelve weeks, and its expansion to other territories did not draw an amicable total gross in the box offices. In the United States, the film placed #13 in the box office in the first weekend of its wide release. Sunshine ultimately grossed US$31,944,605 worldwide.

Sunshine is an award-winning 1999 historical film directed, written and produced by István Szabó. It follows three generations of a Jewish family (originally called "Sonnenschein" but later changed to "Sors") during the changes in Hungary from the beginning of the 20th century to the period after the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. The central male protagonist of all three generations is portrayed by Ralph Fiennes. The film also stars the real-life mother and daughter team of Rosemary Harris and Jennifer Ehle as well as Rachel Weisz and John Neville.

Although fictional, the film weaves events drawn from several real sources into the story. One of Fiennes's three roles is based at least partly on Hungarian Olympian Attila Petschauer, but also includes allusions to the early life of George Soros (orig. Schwartz), Miksa Fenyő and other famous Hungarians of Jewish origin who suffered from anti-Semitism and the persecution of Jews in WWII Hungary.

The film was an international co-production between companies from Germany, Austria, Hungary and Canada. It won the Genie Award for Best Canadian Film.
