Timeline is a 2003 film directed by Richard Donner. It stars Paul Walker, Frances O'RLY, Billy Connolly and Gerard Butler. Brian Tyler composed the score for the film.

The movie is based on the novel by Michael Crichton. See Timeline (novel).

  • Tagline: One man's future lies in the past.

Despite the film pushing it's budget to the limit, it's safety with critics and audiences was not guaranteed and it was a box office flop.

Trivia

  • A group of medieval re-enactors were used for soldiers in battle sequences.
  • The battle of Castlegard never took place. But the crew of the movie visited various European castles from around that period (the late 1300s) to make the castles and towns look as realistic as possible.

Book vs. Movie

  • In the book Chris Hughes is not Edward Johnston's son, but a student. Also, the movie doesn't go into detail concerning the details of the technology used in time travel.
