Ryan Gosling, Sandra Hüller's Project Hail Mary goes on floors

We had earlier reported that actors Ryan Gosling and Sandra Hüller are set to star in the upcoming film Project Hail Mary. The film, which is directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller from a script written by Drew Goddard, has now gone on floors.

Project Hail Mary is based on Andy Weir’s novel of the same name. His 2011 novel The Martian was adapted as a film in 2015. According to the makers, the film is about a middle school science teacher Ryland Grace (Gosling) who wakes up on a spaceship with no memory of who he is or how he got there. He must figure out how to complete his mission to save Earth from an astronomical catastrophe.

While Gosling takes on the role of the amnesiac astronaut Ryland Grace, Sandra Hüller is set to play Eva Stratt, a former ESA employee tasked with spearheading the project to save humanity.

The film is scheduled to hit theatres worldwide on March 20, 2026. Greig Fraser will be cranking the camera for Project Hail Mary which will be shot in IMAX. Amy Pascal, Phil Lord, Christopher Miller and Aditya Sood are producing the film along with author Weir.
