Project Hail Mary arrives on streaming platforms starting June 18. Ryan Gosling stars as Ryland Grace, a teacher who wakes up aboard an interstellar ship with zero memory of how he got there.
The film adapts Andy Weir's 2021 novel and pulled in a massive $681 million worldwide. It ranks as 2026's third highest-grossing release so far and stayed in theaters longer than expected thanks to strong word-of-mouth.
UK viewers get exclusive access on MGM+. Subscribe straight through the MGM+ site or add the channel on Prime Video, Apple TV, or Roku.
A seven-day free trial kicks things off, followed by a monthly fee around £4.49. Amazon MGM Studios produced the movie, so many expected a Prime Video drop, yet MGM+ takes the lead for now.
Industry insiders note that Amazon MGM titles follow different release paths. Some skip straight to Prime while others begin on MGM+ before wider rollout.
"Who the hell has MGM+," fans wondered on X, with others admitting they know zero subscribers to the service.
At 156 minutes long, the film earned glowing IMDb notices. Viewers labeled it a rock solid masterpiece full of clever writing and unexpected emotion.
One fan posted: "One of the best movies I've seen in a while. So cleverly written, with so much unexpected emotion. Someone better give Ryan Gosling an Oscar for this masterpiece."
Project Hail Mary officially lands on MGM+ June 18.
