If you’re a sci-fi fan who loves stories about heroic missions, the new film “Project ‘Ave Maria’” will definitely catch your interest. Amazon MGM Studios have finally released the first trailer for the long-awaited adaptation of Andy Weir’s novel — the same author who brought us “The Martian.” Ryan Gosling stars in the lead role, and his appearance promises to be one of the highlights of spring 2026.
The story centers on Ryland Grace (played by Ryan Gosling), a high school teacher and former scientist who suddenly becomes humanity’s last hope. Why? Because after a mysterious astronomical event, our Sun begins to fade, and the planet is literally on the brink of disaster.
Grace is tasked with a risky mission — to travel into space to discover the cause and try to save Earth. The desperate nature of this mission explains the film’s title — “Ave Maria” — a prayer said in moments of extreme need.
The trailer immediately sets a tense, dramatic, and emotional tone. Against the backdrop of Harry Styles’ “Sign of the Times,” Ryan Gosling repeats several times, “I’m not an astronaut.” It’s not just a line, but the confession of an ordinary man thrust into a situation he never wanted to be in.
Viewers see the harsh trials faced by the protagonist: the struggle to survive in merciless space, dangerous technical failures, loneliness, and attempts to reconnect with a crew left far behind. This isn’t a story about space special effects for their own sake, but about a man with his fears, hopes, and determination.
The film premieres on March 20, 2026. Mark your calendar — it’s going to be intense.
