Based on Andy Weir’s best-selling novel, Project Hail Mary stars Ryan Gosling as Ryland Grace, a lone astronaut who wakes up millions of miles from home with no memory of how he got there. As he pieces together his mission, Grace must use his scientific ingenuity to save not just himself, but all of humanity.
Directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the film brings Weir’s gripping story of survival, scientific problem-solving, and unexpected friendship to the big screen. The same creative minds behind the adaptation of The Martian bring this thrilling space adventure to life.
