"Project Hail Mary" is the upcoming outer space odyssey, based on Andy Weir's 2021 novel, that offers a stirring story of alien first contact.

F ormer First Man Ryan Gosling has booked a return ticket to outer space. Seven years after his star turn as astronaut Neil Armstrong in Damien Chazelle 's Oscar-nominated biopic, the actor is headlining Project Hail Mary for the directing team of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller.

The first trailer for Project Hail Mary has appeared, with Ryan Gosling playing the lead in an adaptation of Andy Weir’s novel of the same name. It’s a story about a man trying to save the sun, but as the trailer also sets up, it’s a far more intimate tale about one man’s relationship with something completely other.
