Hot on the heels of his current starring role in Phil Lord & Chris Miller’s sci-fi dramedy “Project Hail Mary,” actor Ryan Gosling has been set as the lead of another film in pretty much the same genre.
The actor will star in the currently untitled next film of Oscar-winning “Everything Everywhere All at Once” filmmakers Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert (aka The Daniels).
The event film, set up at Universal Pictures, will begin shooting this Summer ahead of a planned November 19th 2027 release. Jonathan Wang will produce the film.
Plot specifics are under wraps, though Kwan revealed at SXSW earlier this month that it’s a “very existential” film and a “fun sci-fi, action comedy”. An ensemble of young talent is also reportedly being sought for the film.
It will mark Gosling’s third sci-fi film in a row, following “Project Hail Mary” and the already shot “Star Wars: Starfighter” from director Shawn Levy. That film is due out in cinemas in May next year.
The hiring comes as talk of a potential “Project Hail Mary” sequel is stirring with Lord & Miller previously indicating they are also open to an adaptation of author Andy Weir’s “Artemis” about a smuggler caught up in a power struggle for control of a lunar colony.
