The film serves as an adaptation of the Andy Weir novel of the same name, and stars Ryan Gosling as Ryland Grace, a middle school teacher who just so happens to have a doctorate in molecular biology and becomes the reluctant member of a crew who is tasked with figuring out why the sun is dying.

The sci-fi drama "Project Hail Mary" debuted its first 5 minutes of a freaked-out Ryan Gosling at Comic-Con, plus showed a glimpse of alien pal Rocky.

“Project Hail Mary” hits theaters on March 20. With it, Lord and Miller are helming their first film since 2014’s “22 Jump Street” (they’ve otherwise kept busy by producing Sony Animation’s “Spider-Verse” trilogy, “Cocaine Bear,” “The Mitchells vs. the Machines” and more).
