Amazon MGM Studios is gearing up for the release of Project Hail Mary, a thrilling space adventure featuring Ryan Gosling in the lead role. Directed by the dynamic duo of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the film is set to hit theaters on March 20, 2026. With no other major releases scheduled for that weekend, Project Hail Mary is poised to capture the attention of audiences worldwide.
The project boasts an impressive lineup of producers, including Amy Pascal, Ryan Gosling, Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, Aditya Sood, Rachel O’Connor, and Andy Weir. Based on Weir’s novel and filmed for Imax, the movie takes viewers on a journey into the near future, where Gosling portrays Ryland Grace, a former schoolteacher who awakens on a space station with no recollection of his identity or mission. As Grace pieces together the fragments of his memory, he discovers that he has been sent to the Tau Ceti solar system to avert a catastrophic space event that threatens Earth with an Ice Age.
As the stakes escalate, Grace must rely on his scientific expertise and resourcefulness to save the planet from impending doom. Drew Goddard penned the screenplay for Project Hail Mary and serves as an executive producer alongside Sarah Esberg and Ken Kao. With the fate of humanity hanging in the balance, Grace’s journey becomes a test of courage, intelligence, and perseverance.
In addition to Project Hail Mary, Amazon MGM has another exciting project on the horizon with Luca Guadagnino’s Challengers, a captivating tennis drama starring Zendaya. Scheduled to debut on April 26, Challengers promises to deliver a gripping tale of competition, passion, and resilience. As Amazon continues to expand its cinematic offerings, viewers can look forward to a diverse range of compelling stories that transport them to new worlds and inspire them to dream beyond the confines of Earth.
