Buck Rogers in the 25th Century
The original spaceman!
Directed by Daniel Haller
Produced by Universal Pictures, Glen A. Larson Productions
A lighthearted space-opera adventure that balances post-apocalyptic stakes with a charming fish-out-of-water protagonist and retro-futuristic spectacle.
Capt. William "Buck" Rogers is a jovial space cowboy who is accidentally time-warped from 1987 to 2491. Earth is engaged in interplanetary war following a global holocaust, and Buck's piloting skills make him an ideal starfighter recruit for the Earth Defense Directorate.
