The black hole Gargantua in the movie Interstellar was rendered using code called Double Negative Gravitational Renderer (DNGR), which was developed by visual effects company Double Negative in collaboration with renowned physicist Kip Thorne (USA). Interstellar was first released on 26 October 2014 at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, California, USA. It works by solving equations for bundles of light propagating around the curved space-time of a spinning black hole, accurately producing the gravitational lensing effects an observer would see if they were there. While the black hole they produced was realistic, it was decided to remove the Doppler effect from Gargantua in order to make it more comprehensible to the viewer.
