The film explains his survival using Statesman's advanced "Alpha Gel" technology, which repairs catastrophic brain tissue damage. However, the procedure leaves Harry suffering from amnesia, believing he is a mild-mannered butterfly scientist.
The Statesman, led by Agent Orvis (Julianne Moore), is a rustic, yet effective organization that uses old-school methods to get the job done.
