If you missed the biggest sci-fi event of the year in theaters, you won’t have to wait much longer to see it on your own screen. Project Hail Mary, starring Ryan Gosling, is officially coming to VOD platforms like Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV on April 28, 2026. After a massive opening weekend that hauled in over $80 million, the film has been the talk of the town, and this digital release means you can finally rent or buy it just over a month after its theatrical debut. While a “free” streaming date on Prime Video is likely held for later this summer, this April window is perfect for those dying to see the survival epic again.
The movie, based on the hit novel by Andy Weir, follows a science teacher who wakes up on a spaceship with no memory of how he got there—only to realize he’s humanity’s last hope. Fans are already raving about the chemistry between Gosling and his CGI co-star, a five-legged alien named Rocky. Directed by the duo behind The LEGO Movie, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the film has managed to capture the humor and heart that made the book a bestseller. Whether you’re in it for the hardcore space science or the unlikely interstellar friendship, mark your calendars for the 28th to bring the mission home.
