Lena Headey and Stephan James go head to head in the sleek MGM+ drama set in an intergalactic lighthouse
In the world Beacon 23 imagines, humankind has reached the farthest corners of the universe. Beacons—intergalactic lighthouses designed to help spaceships navigate treacherous terrain in outer space—have been erected all over. It’s in one of those that this adaptation of Hugh Howey’s same-titled novel is set. The arrival of a strange visitor disturbs what appears to be the lonely and alienating life of the beacon’s sole keeper, who’s only had his AI to keep him company for perhaps way too long.
Indeed, all four actors here are truly engaging. Headey rightly captures the wearied frustrations of a woman who can only depend on herself to survive, while James imbues his character with wounded frustration that makes him equally irascible and vulnerable. And Bogert-O’Brien and Mumba carefully color in their respective AI with enough personality to make them welcome heirs to HAL. At times, you almost forget they’re facsimiles of people and thus perhaps not as trustworthy as they appear.
