Slipstream is a 1989 science fiction film directed by Steven Lisberger, who had previously directed the cult classic 1982 science fiction film Tron. It was produced by Gary Kurtz, best known for his collaboration with George Lucas on the first two Star Wars films and American Graffiti. Slipstream reunited Kurtz with his Star Wars lead Mark Hamill, who stars alongside Bill Paxton, Bob Peck and Kitty Aldridge, with cameo appearances from Robbie Coltrane, Ben Kingsley, Roshan Seth and F. Murray Abraham.

Production

The original script for Slipstream was written by Charles Edward Pogue shortly after the success of Mad Max and was heavily inspired by that film's stylistic and thematic approaches. Producer Gary Kurtz came across the script through a friend and while he was intrigued by the core premise, Kurtz was more uncertain about the violent and exploitative elements.

In 1987, Kurtz hired Steven Lisberger to direct and rework the script with Lisberger accepting the role as he wanted to work on something more character based in contrast to effects heavy productions like Tron. Kurtz offered the role of Will Tasker to Mark Hamill as Kurtz had always wanted to see him in an antagonistic role, which Hamill accepted as he liked the idea of playing against type with this being Hamill's first part in a film since Retu…

The distinctive and futuristic aircraft piloted by Tasker is the Edgley Optica (also known as the Brooklands Optica Scout), a low volume British light aircraft designed as an alternative to helicopters for law enforcement and low-speed observation work.

Slipstream began ten weeks of principal photography in March 1988, at Pinewood Studios as well as locations in Yorkshire and Turkey.
