A Million Miles Away Review

‘A Million Miles Away’ chronicles an inspiring true story of a farm worker-turned-astronaut. This biopic of NASA Astronaut José M. Hernández, who dreamed big and –– spoiler alert –– made it happen through grit and determination.

Opening in select theaters on September 8th before premiering on Prime Video on September 15th, ‘A Million Miles Away’ chronicles the fascinating, ambitious true story of José M. Hernández, who went from picking crops with his family as a migrant worker to blasting off on the Space Shuttle. Michael Peña plays Hernández, with Rosa Salazar as his equally ambitious and talented wife Adela, and the story is one to inspire anyone who dreams of making it to orbit.
