A genetic anomaly allows a young man to teleport himself anywhere. He discovers this gift has existed for centuries and finds himself in a war that has been raging for thousands of years between “Jumpers” and those who have sworn to kill them.
Davey lives alone with his father. But the truth is, it isn’t much of a home. When things get so bad that Davey decides to run away, his big question is, Where? And how will he live? The magical answer is anywhere Davey wants! Davey discovers he has the power to jump from one place to another.
Not just a few feet. But hundreds, even thousands of miles! And as Davey explores his new power he learns that the world is literally his for the taking.
But there are consequences too, as Davey will learn. His mother who left him and his abusive father years before, is reunited with Davey only to be killed. As Davey resists the pull from the CIA he must also battle those who took someone very dear to him.
His girlfriend Millie tries to help him but not even her support can get him out of the mess he has gotten himself into. Davey seeks the ultimate revenge, only to learn that revenge may not be what he really desires.
Jumper is based on the science fiction novel Jumper by Steven Gould. The film is directed by Doug Liman, of Bourne Ultimatum and Mr. and Mrs. Smith fame, and stars Samuel L. Jackson and Hayden Christensen. Jumper is slated for a February 15, 2008 release.
