Creation is the partly biographical, part fictional account of scientist Charles Darwin's relationship with his eldest daughter 'Annie', as the author struggled to document his evolutionary theories in the book On the Origin of Species.

Produced by Jeremy Thomas, the film was directed by Jon Amiel, starring actors Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly as 'Charles' and 'Emma Darwin'.

Screenplay is by John Collee, adapting author Randal Keynes's biography of Darwin titled Annie's Box.

The film had its world premiere September 10, 2009 at the Toronto International Film Festival as the opening night Gala Presentation.

According to producer Thomas, the US was one of the last countries to find a distributor due to the prominence of the ongoing 'creation' vs. 'evolution' controversy.

Newmarket Films (The Passion Of Christ), eventually acquired distribution rights to the Icon film with plans to release it December 2009.

In Canada, D Films will release Creation January 22, 2010.
