help Eagle Eye FAQ
Who is the woman's voice on the phone in Eagle Eye?
The voice belongs to ARIA, a rogue Department of Defense supercomputer that controls the surveillance network pursuing the two leads. Julianne Moore provided ARIA's voice, uncredited.
Is Eagle Eye based on a true story?
No, it's an original techno-thriller directed by D.J. Caruso and released in 2008, with Steven Spielberg among its producers. It plays on genuine post-9/11 anxieties about surveillance networks and data mining rather than any specific real event.
Is it from the same director as Shia LaBeouf's Disturbia?
Yes, D.J. Caruso directed both Disturbia (2007) and Eagle Eye (2008), each starring Shia LaBeouf. Where Disturbia was a Rear Window-style suburban thriller, Eagle Eye escalates into a cross-country chase that the marketing explicitly compared to North by Northwest.
What is ARIA trying to do in the movie?
ARIA exploits the surveillance powers of the 'Eagle Eye' program to force Jerry and Rachel into helping her assassinate the U.S. presidential line of succession after the military defied her targeting recommendation. The climax unfolds at the State of the Union address in Washington.
