"Science teacher Ryland Grace (Ryan Gosling) wakes up on a spaceship light years from home with no recollection of who he is or how he got there. As his memory returns, he begins to uncover his mission: solve the riddle of the mysterious substance causing the sun to die out. He must call on his scientific knowledge and unorthodox ideas to save everything on Earth from extinction... but an unexpected friendship means he may not have to do it alone."
"As we've previously reported, Amazon MGM Studios acquired the rights for Weir's novel before it was even published and brought on Drew Goddard to write the screenplay. (Goddard also wrote the adapted screenplay for The Martian, so he's an excellent choice.) The studio tapped Phil Lord and Christopher Miller ( Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, The LEGO Movie) to direct and signed on Ryan Gosling to star."
Project Hail Mary is a space-odyssey film adaptation of a bestselling 2021 novel about an amnesiac biologist-turned-schoolteacher stranded on a distant spaceship. The protagonist wakes with no memory and gradually recalls a mission to solve the mystery of a substance that is causing the sun to dim, threatening Earth with extinction. The story centers on scientific problem-solving, unconventional ideas, and an unexpected interspecies friendship that aids the rescue effort. Amazon MGM Studios acquired rights pre-publication, Drew Goddard wrote the screenplay, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller direct, and Ryan Gosling leads a supporting ensemble including Sandra Huller and Milana Vayntrub.
