Redmayne is joined by Felicity Jones ("The Amazing Spider-Man 2") as Jane Hawking in the film written by Anthony McCarten and based on the memoir "Travelling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen." Oscar winner James Marsh directs.

Here's how it's billed: "This is the extraordinary story of one of the world's greatest living minds, the renowned astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, who falls deeply in love with fellow Cambridge student Jane Wilde. Once a healthy, active young man, Hawking received an earth-shattering diagnosis at 21 years of age. With Jane fighting tirelessly by his side, Stephen embarks on his most ambitious scientific work, studying the very thing he now has precious little of – time. Together, they defy impossible odds, breaking new ground in medicine and science, and achieving more than they could ever have dreamed."
