Filming for Project Hail Mary, starring Ryan Gosling and Sandra Hüller, has wrapped, as confirmed by the film’s co-director, Christopher Miller.
Production began on June 3, 2024, in the United Kingdom. After a 145-day shoot, filming was finally completed on October 26. On X, Miller wrote, “That’s a wrap on principal photography for Project Hail Mary!”
What is the Plot of Project Hail Mary?
“Project Hail Mary, filmed for IMAX, is an adaptation of Andy Weir’s (author of “The Martian”) novel, set in the near future. Gosling stars as Ryland Grace, a former schoolteacher turned astronaut, who awakens from a coma to find himself alone on a space station, devoid of memories about his identity or mission. As his memory gradually returns, he realizes he was sent to the Tau Ceti solar system, 12 light-years away from Earth, to counteract a space event that has thrust our planet into the early stages of an Ice Age. As the details of his mission unfold, he must rely on his scientific expertise and resourcefulness. However, he might not be as alone as he initially thought…”
Directed by Phil Lord and Miller, the film also stars Milana Vayntrub and features James Ortiz as the puppeteer for Rocky, an alien encountered by Ryland.
Recently, Gosling was spotted on the set in Southsea, England, while filming a scene. He was seen wearing a yellow sweater.
Produced by Lord, Miller, Gosling, Ken Kao, Amy Pascal, and Andy Weir. The film is a collaboration between Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Lord Miller Productions, and Pascal Pictures.
Project Hail Mary will hit theaters on March 20, 2026, by Amazon MGM Studios under the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures label.
