“Science is changing, and the very people who are running science believe the world is flat. I’m going to prove them wrong,” says Rosamund Pike in a new teaser for Marjane Satrapi’s “Radioactive.” The biopic sees the Oscar-nominated “Gone Girl” actress playing Marie Curie, a physicist and chemist who made history as the only person to win the Nobel Prize in two different scientific fields.

The spot shows Curie researching radioactivity, and hints at how her discoveries were used to devastating effect in war. “You threw a stone in the water. The ripples, you can’t control,” she’s told.

“A Private War” and “Beirut” are among Pike’s recent credits.

Satrapi made her directorial debut with “Persepolis,” an adaptation of her acclaimed graphic novel of the same name. Her other features include “The Voices” and “Gang of the Jotas.”

“Radioactive” just made its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival and is expected to hit theaters in early 2020.
