Final Destination is a 2000 supernatural horror film written and directed by James Wong. The film was co-written by Glen Morgan and Jeffrey Reddick, both of them having previously worked with Wong in the TV series The X-Files. The film stars Devon Sawa, Ali Larter, Kerr Smith, Seann William Scott and Tony Todd. Sawa portrays a teenager who "cheats death" after having a premonition of himself and others perishing in a plane explosion and uses it by saving himself and a handle of other passengers, but is continued to be stalked by Death by claiming back their lives which should have been lost in the plane.
