The upcoming biopic 'Voyagers' focuses on the relationship between Carl Sagan and Ann Druyan during the late 1970s. This market predicts whether the film will depict their romantic involvement while Sagan was still married to his previous wife. Resolution will be based on the film's content upon release. Source

Resolution Criteria

This market resolves to YES if the film "Voyagers" explicitly depicts or references a romantic relationship between Carl Sagan and Ann Druyan beginning while Sagan was still married to Linda Salzman. This includes dialogue, scenes, or clear implications of their affair starting before his divorce. The market resolves to NO if the film portrays their relationship as beginning only after Sagan's marriage ended or if the timeline is deliberately ambiguous.

Background

"Voyagers" is an upcoming film directed by Sebastián Lelio starring Andrew Garfield as Carl Sagan and Daisy Edgar-Jones as Ann Druyan. The film focuses on their relationship during the creation of the Voyager Golden Record in 1977. Carl Sagan was at the time still married to his second wife, Linda Salzman, when he and Druyan began working together on the Voyager project. Sagan and Druyan eventually married in 1981.

The script was developed with input from Ann Druyan herself, who has been eager to share this story on screen. The film centers on both the creation of the Golden Record, which was intended to represent humanity to potential extraterrestrial civilizations, and the personal relationship that developed between Sagan and Druyan during this scientifically significant project.
