The film is touted to be a sci-fi film that takes place after Earth is hit by a cataclysmic solar event. Hanks plays the titular character, a robotics engineer who lives with a robot and his dog. Finch builds the robot as he lives underground after the solar event. Finch will follow Hanks’ character and his companions as they set out on a journey to the outside world, which has now changed.
