A for Andromeda: Kelly Reilly and Tom Hardy
  A FOR ANDROMEDA

When a group of scientists receive a message from outer space telling them to build a computer, they follow the orders with disastrous results. The computer is far more advanced than they imagined and proceeds to build a biological robot, Andromeda, from one of their dead colleagues.

Kelly Reilly leads the cast as Andromeda, with Tom Hardy, David Haig, Charlie Cox and Jane Asher also starring.
