“Project Hail Mary” is a sci fi film adapted from Andy Weir’s bestselling novel of the same name. Ryan Gosling plays Ryland Grace, a lone astronaut who wakes up on a spacecraft with no memory and slowly realizes he has been sent to save Earth from a mysterious stellar threat. The story mixes problem solving, realistic space science and a surprisingly emotional first contact plotline, echoing the brainy adventure tone known from “The Martian”. The final trailer highlights tense survival scenes, playful moments of humor and a focus on Grace’s unlikely interstellar partnership rather than pure spectacle, which suggests a character driven blockbuster rather than a cold hard science piece.
The movie is produced by Amazon MGM Studios and is scheduled for a wide theatrical release on 20 March 2026.
