Movies, and Hollywood in general, keeps letting us down. 2026, however, has at least a few projects that really do have our attention. Project Hail Mary is one of them.
The Amazon MGM Studios production is based on a novel from Andy Weir, author of The Martian.
Like with The Martian, Drew Goddard is again the screenwriter for the adaptation.
Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who helmed The LEGO Movie and walked away from Lucasfilm and Solo: A Star Wars Story, produce and direct.
Ryan Gosling stars as astronaut Ryland Grace who awakens on a spacecraft with no memory of himself or his mission.
He slowly comes to understand that he is the sole survivor of a crew sent to the Tau Ceti solar system in search of a solution to a catastrophic event on Earth.
In his search for answers, Grace must rely on his vast array of scientific knowledge, sheer ingenuity, and human will – but he may not have to search alone.
The first trailer was the biggest trailer launch in Amazon MGM Studios’ history back in July. Now there is a full, final trailer ahead of release.
Sandra Hüller and Milana Vayntrub co-star in the film, which is released in theaters on March 20th 2026.
I think I will be there for this one.
