Over the last 10\u201315 years, Ryan Gosling<\/a> has become one of the most high-profile and talented actors in the world. One of his most famous roles came just a few years ago from starring opposite Margot Robbie<\/a> in Barbie<\/a>, and it even netted him an Oscar nomination \u2014 he ultimately lost the award to Robert Downey Jr<\/a>, who won for playing Lewis Strauss in Oppenheimer<\/a>. Gosling earned his first nomination 20 years ago for his performance in Half Nelson<\/a>, and he landed his second nomination exactly 10 years later for starring opposite Emma Stone<\/a> in La La Land<\/a>. Gosling is soon to star in one of the most anticipated sci-fi movies of 2027 with Star Wars: Starfighter, but he could be in line for another Oscar nomination before he ventures to a Galaxy Far, Far Away.<\/p>\n Earlier this year, Gosling starred in the first true sci-fi masterpiece of 2026 with Project Hail Mary<\/a>, which is based on the novel of the same name by Andy Weir<\/a>. Weir also wrote the book that inspired Ridley Scott<\/a>\u2019s 2015 sci-fi masterpiece, The Martian<\/a>, starring Matt Damon<\/a>. After earning scores of 94% from critics and 95% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes<\/a>, Project Hail Mary is officially considered a modern masterpiece, and perhaps the only sci-fi movie of the last 15 years that can safely be considered better than Interstellar<\/a>. After grossing nearly $700 million at the box office, Project Hail Mary finally arrived on digital platforms last week, and the film has unsurprisingly been one of the biggest streaming success stories of the year. At the time of writing, Project Hail Mary is one of the top 10 most popular rentals and purchases in more than 25 countries around the world.<\/p>\n Collider Exclusive \u00b7 Sci-Fi Survival Quiz Five universes.

What do you do? \n APull on every thread until I understand the system \u2014 then figure out how to break it. NEXT QUESTION \u2192<\/p>\n 02<\/p>\n In a world of scarcity, what resource do you guard most fiercely? \n AKnowledge. If you understand the system, you don’t need resources \u2014 you can generate them. NEXT QUESTION \u2192<\/p>\n 03<\/p>\n What kind of threat keeps you up at night? \n AThat reality itself is a lie \u2014 that everything I experience has been constructed to keep me compliant.

NEXT QUESTION \u2192<\/p>\n 05<\/p>\n Which environment could you actually endure long-term? \n AUnderground bunkers and server rooms \u2014 cramped, artificial, but with access to everything that matters.

NEXT QUESTION \u2192<\/p>\n 08<\/p>\n What would actually make survival worth it? \n AWaking others up \u2014 dismantling the illusion so no one else has to live inside it. REVEAL MY WORLD \u2192<\/p>\n Your Fate Has Been Calculated Your answers point to the world your instincts were built for. This is the universe your temperament, your survival instincts, and your particular brand of stubbornness were made for.<\/p>\n The Resistance, Zion\n <\/p>\n The Matrix<\/p>\n You took the red pill a long time ago \u2014 probably before anyone offered it to you. You’re a systems thinker who can’t help but notice the seams in things.<\/p>\n You’re drawn to understanding how the system works before figuring out how to break it. The Wasteland\n <\/p>\n Mad Max<\/p>\n The wasteland doesn’t reward the clever or the well-connected \u2014 it rewards those who are hard to kill and harder to break. That’s you.<\/p>\n You don’t need comfort, community, or a cause larger than the next horizon. Los Angeles, 2049\n <\/p>\n Blade Runner<\/p>\n You’d survive here because you know how to exist in moral grey areas without losing yourself completely.<\/p>\n You read people accurately, keep your circle small, and ask the questions others prefer not to answer. Arrakis\n <\/p>\n Dune<\/p>\n Arrakis is the most hostile environment in the known universe \u2014 and you are precisely the kind of person it rewards.<\/p>\n Patience, discipline, and political awareness are your core strengths \u2014 and on Arrakis, they’re survival tools. A Galaxy Far, Far Away\n <\/p>\n Star Wars<\/p>\n The galaxy far, far away is vast, loud, and in a constant state of violent political upheaval \u2014 and you wouldn’t have it any other way.<\/p>\n You find meaning in being part of something larger than yourself \u2014 a cause, a crew, a rebellion. \n \u21bb RETAKE THE QUIZ\n <\/p>\n Is Amazon Making a Sequel to \u2018Project Hail Mary\u2019?<\/p>\n While Project Hail Mary author Andy Weir has confirmed that he\u2019s tossing around ideas for a potential sequel to the book and the film, there are no signs yet that anything concrete is moving forward. Most Project Hail Mary fans agree that the story of both the book and the film end on a pretty finite note, which would leave a sequel feeling more like a cash grab and less like a story that really needs to be told. Still, money is a powerful motivator, so a sequel to Project Hail Mary<\/a> can\u2019t be ruled out after the film has done so well.<\/p>\n Check out Project Hail Mary on VOD platforms like Prime Video<\/a> and Apple TV and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of Project Hail Mary.<\/p>\n Release Date<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMarch 15, 2026<\/p>\n Runtime<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t157 minutes<\/p>\n Director<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tChristopher Miller, Phil Lord<\/p>\n
\n Which Sci-Fi World Would You Survive?
\n The Matrix \u00b7 Mad Max \u00b7 Blade Runner \u00b7 Dune \u00b7 Star Wars<\/p>\n
\n The first instinct is often the truest one.<\/p>\n
\n BStop asking questions and start stockpiling \u2014 food, fuel, weapons. Questions don’t keep you alive.
\n CKeep my head down, observe carefully, and trust no one until I know who’s pulling the strings.
\n DStudy the patterns. Every system has a rhythm \u2014 learn it, and you learn how to survive it.
\n EFind the people fighting back and join them. You can’t fix a broken galaxy alone.\n <\/p>\n
\n What we protect reveals what we believe survival actually requires.<\/p>\n
\n BFuel. Everything else \u2014 movement, power, escape \u2014 runs on it.
\n CTrust. In a world of fakes and informants, a truly reliable ally is rarer than any commodity.
\n DWater. And after water, information \u2014 the two things empires are truly built on.
\n EShips and credits. The galaxy is big \u2014 you survive it by being able to move through it freely.\n <\/p>\n
\n Fear is useful data \u2014 if you’re honest about what you’re actually afraid of.<\/p>\n
\n BA raid. No warning, no mercy \u2014 just the roar of engines and then nothing left.
\n CBeing identified. Once someone with power decides you’re a problem, you’re already out of time.
\n DBeing outmanoeuvred \u2014 losing a political game I didn’t even know I was playing.
\n EThe Empire tightening its grip until there’s nowhere left to run.\n <\/p>\n
\n Every dystopia has a power structure. Your approach to it determines everything.<\/p>\n
\n BIgnore it and stay out of its reach. The further from any power structure, the better.
\n CAppear to comply while doing exactly what I need to do. Visibility is the enemy.
\n DManoeuvre within it carefully. You can’t beat a system you refuse to understand.
\n EResist openly when I have to. Some things are worth the risk of being seen.\n <\/p>\n
\n Survival isn’t just tactical \u2014 it’s physical, psychological, and very much about where you are.<\/p>\n
\n BOpen wasteland \u2014 brutal sun, no shelter, constant movement. At least the threat is honest.
\n CA dense, rain-soaked city where you can disappear into the crowd and nobody asks questions.
\n DMerciless desert \u2014 extreme heat, no water, and something enormous living beneath the sand.
\n EThe fringe \u2014 backwater planets and busy spaceports where the Empire’s attention rarely reaches.\n <\/p>\n
\n The company you keep is the clearest signal of who you actually are.<\/p>\n
\n BOne or two people I’d trust with my life. Any more than that and someone talks.
\n CNobody, ideally. Alliances are liabilities. I work alone unless I have no choice.
\n DA community bound by shared hardship and mutual survival \u2014 people who need each other to last.
\n EA ragtag team with wildly different skills and total commitment when it counts.\n <\/p>\n
\n Every survivor eventually faces a moment that tests what they’re actually made of.<\/p>\n
\n BI do what I have to to protect the people I’ve chosen. Everything else is negotiable.
\n CThe line shifts depending on who’s asking and what’s at stake.
\n DI draw a long-term line \u2014 nothing that compromises my people’s future, even if it’d help now.
\n ESome lines, once crossed, can’t be uncrossed. I know which ones they are.\n <\/p>\n
\n Staying alive is one thing. Having a reason to is another.<\/p>\n
\n BFinding somewhere \u2014 or someone \u2014 worth protecting. A reason to keep moving.
\n CAnswers. Understanding what I am, what any of this means, before time runs out.
\n DLegacy \u2014 shaping the future in a way that outlasts me by generations.
\n EFreedom \u2014 for myself, for others, for every world still living under someone else’s boot.\n <\/p>\n
\n You’d Survive In\u2026<\/p>\n
\n You’d find the Resistance, or it would find you \u2014 your instinct for spotting constructed realities is the machines’ worst nightmare.
\n You function best when you have access to information and the freedom to act on it.
\n The Matrix built an airtight prison. You’d be the one probing the walls for the door.<\/p>\n
\n You need a vehicle, a clear threat, and enough fuel to outrun it \u2014 and you’re good at all three.
\n You are unsentimental enough to survive that world, and decent enough \u2014 just barely \u2014 to be something more than another raider.
\n In the wasteland, that distinction is everything.<\/p>\n
\n In a city where humanity is a legal designation rather than a feeling, you hold onto something that keeps you functional.
\n You’re not a hero. But you’re not lost, either.
\n In Blade Runner’s world, that distinction is everything.<\/p>\n
\n You understand that the long game matters more than any single victory.
\n Others come to Dune and are consumed by it. You’d learn its logic and earn its respect.
\n In time, you wouldn’t just survive Arrakis \u2014 you’d begin to reshape it.<\/p>\n
\n You’d gravitate toward the Rebellion, or the fringes, or whatever pocket of the galaxy still believes the Empire’s grip can be broken.
\n You fight \u2014 not because you have to, but because standing aside isn’t something you’re capable of.
\n In Star Wars, that willingness is what makes all the difference.<\/p>\n![\"iob2fjxlbpjgyqxe46n1wtgcnaa.jpg\"](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/iob2fjxlbpjgyqxe46n1wtgcnaa.jpg\"\/)
