Amazon MGM has released the first trailer for Project Hail Mary.
The sci-fi comedy stars Ryan Gosling, who plays 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 interstellar mission to save Earth from an astronomical catastrophe completely alone, until he meets a mysterious alien who has traveled light years to save his own species from the same fate.
The Phil Lord and Chris Miller-directed space adventure is based on the Andy Weir bestseller of the same name.
Amazon MGM showed footage from the film at their CinemaCon presentation in April. Gosling was present and called the film an “insanely ambitious story, massive in scope.” It was so big, “we tried to put it on a TV once, it wouldn’t fit,” he said.
Also starring in the film are Sandra Huller and Milana Vayntrub. Producers are Amy Pascal, Gosling, Lord, Miller, Aditya Sood, Rachel O’Connor, Ken Kao, and Weir. Oscar-winning Dune DP Greig Fraser is the cinematographer. Executive producers are Lucy Kitada and Nikki Baida via Lord Miller; Goddard, Sarah Esberg, Ken Kao, and Patty Whitcher.
Amazon MGM Studios has set a March 20, 2026 release.
