John Malkovich starred in a film sealed until 2115

HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART

In 2015, heavily renowned actor John Malkovich starred in an incredibly secretive experimental movie funded by a high-end cognac company. Once the filming strictly wrapped, the single physical copy was locked inside a highly secured, bulletproof vault timed to unlock exactly one hundred years later. Absolutely nobody currently alive will ever be able to legally witness the film's premiere in 2115.
