That is, if it ever happened at all.
The 2012 documentaryRoom 237even posited an interpretation ofThe Shiningas Kubricks covert apology for helping to fake the moon landing.
The new filmMoonwalkershas yet another (fictional) interpretation of the scenario.
In the exclusive clip above, Grints character physically transforms one of his hippie friends into a Kubrick doppelganger.
It felt really free and spontaneous, Grint says.
We had the freedom to do what we wanted.
You get that sense watching it that it was fun to make.
Grint says hes always been interested in conspiracy theories.
DespiteMoonwalkersobvious farcical aspect, he says it did make him think twice about the real life moon landing.
The film, in fact, remains slightly vague about whether the actual moon landing was successful or not.
Filming this, it gave me a few second thoughts.
Our fake moon was easy to make, and a lot of the film is pretty ambiguous either way.
But even as Grint forges ahead with new projects likeMoonwalkers,his most famous role has moved beyond him.
It feels very strange not to be involved in that world anymore, Grint says.
Its nice to see it from a different angle.
I think both projects are both kind of reinventing it.
They kind of feel like their own things, which is really cool.
Its really amazing to see it move on and still be relevant to people.
It makes you feel kind of old, Grint says.
I never wouldve dreamed this.
You thought people would just forget about it.
I meet new people every day and see that new generations are discovering it.
It makes you proud to have had a part in it.
Im really looking forward to the play, and the cast ofFantastic Beastsis amazing.
Its gonna be great.
