Get ready, fans of Dan Brown’s thrillers, The Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons. The next installment of the movie series, Inferno, is coming to US theaters this fall, and if the excitement at the red carpet press event at Singapore’s ArtScience Museum is any indication, it will not disappoint!

Once again, Ron Howard takes the helm as director of this third movie, which, like the first two, stars Tom Hanks as symbologist Robert Langdon. This time, Langdon wakes up in an Italian hospital with no memories of what happened to him. Teaming up with Sienna Brooks (played by Felicity Jones), a doctor he hopes can help reverse his amnesia, Langdon is on a race through Florence and against the clock as he tries to break codes and solve puzzles that are the work of a man obsessed with the end of the world, tied to the work of the great writer, Dante.

Howard, along with actors Tom Hanks and Irrfan Kahn, met with press and fans in Singapore to talk about the movie for the first time since the movie was completed. The enthusiasm was palpable in the crowd as the three walked along the red carpet, signing autographs and taking pictures with fans and journalists. All three happily interacted with the crowd and clearly it was a great time for all.

“It’s fun to be together, particularly in a place as fascinating and interesting and inspiring as Singapore, and this is actually the first time that we’ve had a chance to talk about the movie,” said Ron Howard on the red carpet outside of the ArtScience Museum. “And so in a lot of ways, this group of journalists is catching us at our freshest and at the moment when the movie is just finished, we’re very proud of it, and eager to share.”
