Space drama Stowaway survives on suspense built by crew of actors Stowaway. Anna Kendrick in Daniel Dae Kim in Photo by Jurgen Olczyk/Netflix When filmmakers decide to take on a project that’s set in space, it’s rarely a story about something going right. Successes don’t have the inherent drama that failures do, and when mistakes happen in space, they automatically involve life-or-death decisions, given the difficulty in getting back to Earth and the relative flimsiness of the spacecraft. The new Netflix movie Stowaway is full of that kind of drama, if not complete believability. Three astronauts — Marina Barnett (Toni Collette), Zoe Levenson (Anna Kendrick), and David Kim (Daniel Dae Kim) — launch on a two-year mission to Mars as the film begins. All appears to be going swimmingly until Marina discovers Michael Adams (Shamier Anderson), an engineer who somehow got stuck in a panel aboard the spaceship, unintentionally becoming a stowaway.
