“Years after cancellation, the stars of the television series Galaxy Quest cling to their careers. When a distressed interstellar race mistakes the show for ‘historical documents,’ lead actor Jason Nesmith (Tim Allen) and his crew of has-beens are unwittingly recruited to save the alien race from a genocidal warlord,” the synopsis for the film reads. “Featuring an all-star ensemble, including Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman, Tony Shalhoub, Sam Rockwell, Daryl Mitchell, Justin Long and Rainn Wilson, GALAXY QUEST is a hilarious adventure that boldly goes where no comedy has gone before.”

Galaxy Quest, which largely serves as a parody and homage to Stark Trek and its fandom, was written by David Howard and Robert Gordon. The movie is rated PG for some action violence, mild language, and sensuality.
