Serenity is a 2005 American space Western film written and directed by Joss Whedon in his feature directorial debut. The film is a continuation of Whedon's short-lived 2002 Fox television series Firefly and stars the same cast, taking place after the events of the final episode. Set in 2517, Serenity is the story of the crew of Serenity, a "Firefly-class" spaceship. The captain and first mate are veterans of the Unification War, having fought on the losing Independent side against the Alliance. Their lives of smuggling and cargo-running are interrupted by a psychic passenger who harbors a dangerous secret.
The film stars Nathan Fillion, Alan Tudyk, Adam Baldwin, Summer Glau and Chiwetel Ejiofor. Serenity was released in North America on September 30, 2005, by Universal Pictures to generally positive reviews and several accolades, including the Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation, the Prometheus Special Award and the Nebula Award for Best Script, but underperformed at the box office.

Universal Studios wanted a composer with experience scoring films, ruling out Firefly's composer Greg Edmonson. Whedon first thought of Carter Burwell, of whom Whedon was a huge fan. However, Whedon later felt that Burwell was not the right choice because as the film changed, the needs of the score changed as well.[25] Burwell found working on the project difficult as it required he work "opposite" to his usual approach.[26] The production would have continued with Burwell, but his other obligations left him little time to compose an entirely new score for Serenity.[25] Burwell was dropped from the project a few weeks before the scheduled February 2005 recording.[26]
Serenity had its world premiere at the Edinburgh International Film Festival on August 22, 2005.[29][30] The premiere sold out,[29] and the festival arranged for two more screenings on August 24, which sold out in twenty-four hours,[31][32] and in the "Best of the Fest" line-up on August 28.[31] The film was theatrically released September 30, 2005.[2]
In April 2005, Universal launched a three-stage grassroots marketing campaign. A rough cut of the film was previewed in a total of thirty-five North American cities where the Firefly television series received the highest Nielsen ratings. The screenings did not bear the name of the film and relied on word-of-mouth within the fanbase for promotion. All screenings sold out in less than twenty-four hours, sometimes in as quickly as five minutes.[34] The first screening was held May 5, 2005, in ten cities.[35] The second screening on May 26 increased the number of cities to twenty. In the twenty-four hours following the announcement of the second screening, the Firefly fanbase launched trial and error efforts to uncover the theaters holding the screenings, leading the event to be sold out before the official listing was released.[36] The third screening on June 23 was held in thirty-five cities.[37] A final screening was held at Comic-Con International, followed by a panel with Whedon and the cast.[34]
Session 416, also known as the R. Tam Sessions,[38] are a series of five short videos anonymously released by Whedon through various websites and message boards as viral marketing.[39][40][41] The first video, bearing the title card "R. Tam, Session 416, Second Excerpt", was released on the iFilm website on August 16, 2005.[39] By September 7, 2005, all five videos had been released.[40]
Serenity was released on Region 1 DVD, VHS and UMD on December 20, 2005.[44][45] The DVD ranked #3 in sales for the week ending December 25, 2005.[46] Bonus features on the DVD version include audio commentary from Whedon; deleted scenes and outtakes; a short introduction by Whedon for advance screenings; a hidden featurette on the creation of the Fruity Oaty Bar commercial; and three featurettes on the Firefly and Serenity universe, special effects, and the revival of the television series to film.[47] Region 2 releases included an additional making-of featurette,[48][49] and Region 4 releases included additional extended scenes, a tour of the set, a feature on cinematographer Jack Green, and a question-and-answer session with Whedon filmed after an advance screening in Australia.[50]
Despite high anticipation, Serenity performed poorly at the box office. Although several pundits predicted a #1 opening,[56][57][58] the film opened at #2 in the United States, taking in $10.1 million on its first weekend, spending two weeks in the top ten, and closed on November 17, 2005 with a domestic box office gross of $25.5 million.[2] Movie industry analyst Brandon Gray described Serenity's box office performance as "like a below average genre picture".[59]
Universal Studios wanted to do an animated prequel to the Serenity film, but after Whedon and Brett Matthews wrote a story, Universal scuttled the project.[90][91] The story was rewritten into a three-issue comic book miniseries intended to bridge the gap between the television series and the film.[90][92][93] Serenity: Those Left Behind was released from July through September 2005 by Dark Horse Comics.[93][94][95]
A novelization of the film was written by Keith DeCandido and published by Simon & Schuster under their Pocket Star imprint on August 30, 2005.[96] Titan Publishing published Serenity: The Official Visual Companion on September 1, 2005, and Titan Magazines released a one-shot souvenir magazine.[97][98] Margaret Weis Productions released the Serenity tabletop role-playing game based on the film on September 19, 2005.[99][100]
Inkworks issued a 72-card trading card set, including autographed cards and cards with swatches of costumes used in the film, on September 21, 2005.[101][102] The set won Diamond Comics' 2005 Non-Sports Card Product of the Year Gem Award.[103] Diamond Select Toys released five six-inch action figures initially featuring Malcolm Reynolds, Jayne Cobb, and a Reaver,[98][104][105] later adding River Tam,[106] Inara Serra,[107] and Zoe Washburne.[108] The line was deemed to be "disappointing" with the figure of Malcolm Reynolds particularly singled out; both won MWCToys' silver award for Worst Line and Worst Male Figure under twelve inches for 2005.[109]
The first major sequel rumor began on December 1, 2005, when IGN Filmforce reported that Universal had expressed an interest in making a Serenity television movie for broadcast on the Sci-Fi Channel. It was expected that commissioning of a television sequel would be contingent on strong DVD sales of Serenity.[119] In a January 2006 interview, Whedon doubted the chances of a sequel.[120] On October 1, 2006, Whedon posted a comment to the Whedonesque.com website, debunking a rumor that he was working on a sequel.[121]

Albeit, growing awareness and evidence, women remain underrepresented in positions of leadership (Agar 2004, Brown 2005). Changes in perceptions about future aspirations for girls require targeted interventions. Brown and Gilligan (1992) identify early adolescence as a crossroads in displaying disconnection, reduced self-confidence and a drop-in self-esteem. This highlights the benefit of leadership exposure for young women to encourage them to see themselves in leadership roles as well as to enable them to develop the requisite skills to challenge stereotypes and overcome barriers to take up these roles. The capacity of young women to adapt and recover from highly traumatic or stressful situations and thrive despite extremely deprived communities has led to the emergence of research in the field of leadership and resilience.
Pinter's consisten work has led him to success. It is in 2005 by being awarded the Nobel Prize for literature that Harold Pinter gained world wide recognition. The citation says that the award was for one 'who in his plays uncovers the precipice under everyday prattle and forces entry into oppression's closed rooms.' He stimulated in critics and theatre goers alike, a major reassessment of the relationship between dramatist, play and audience. 'Pinter restored theatre to its basic elements: an enclosed space and unpredictable dialogue where people are at the mercy of each other and pretence crumbles,' the Academy said. Until Harold Pinter won the Nobel Prize in Literature on 13 October 2005, only three playwrights writing in English had won this honour: George Bernard Shaw, Eugene O'Neill and, in 1969, the man whom Pinter often referred to as his major influence: Samuel Beckett. Heavyweight company, indeed! Pinter is the first Briton to win the award since V.S. Naipaul won it in 2001, and is the 11th playwright to win it since its beginning in 1901. 2ff7e9595c
