Sure, most Americans are glued to their TVs for the today\u2019s Super Bowl and\/or the Winter Olympics. But for the non-sports minded, Amazon MGM Studios has released one last trailer for its forthcoming space odyssey Project Hail Mary<\/a>, based on Andy Weir\u2019s (The Martian) bestselling 2021 novel<\/a> about an amnesiac biologist-turned-schoolteacher in space.<\/p>\n

As previously reported<\/a>, Amazon MGM Studios acquired the rights for Weir\u2019s 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\u2019s 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. Per the official premise:<\/p>\n

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\u2026 but an unexpected friendship means he may not have to do it alone.<\/p>\n

In addition to Gosling, the cast includes Sandra Huller as head of the Hail Mary project and Ryland\u2019s superior; Milana Vayntrub as project astronaut Olesya Ilyukhina; Ken Leung as project astronaut Yao Li-Jie; Liz Kingsman as Shapiro; Orion Lee as Xi; and James Ortiz as a new life form Ryland names Rocky.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sure, most Americans are glued to their TVs for the today\u2019s Super Bowl and\/or the Winter Olympics.
