Project Hail Mary is the second film adaptation of Andy Weir’s book. The movie has earned one of the biggest 2nd Mondays among March releases. It has solid hold at the domestic box office but will lose the #1 rank to The Super Galaxy Movie and drop to #2. Amid the new releases, the big question is how much more it needs to beat the previous Andy Weir adaptation, The Martian, at the domestic box office. Keep scrolling for more.
Blending science-heavy problem-solving with emotional depth, the film centers on survival, discovery, and an unexpected friendship that becomes key to humanity’s fate. Much like The Martian, it combines humor with high-stakes tension, making it both an engaging and thought-provoking space adventure.

How much more does it need to beat the domestic haul of The Martian?
Back in 2015, The Martian emerged as a massive success, earning over $228.4 million at the North American box office and setting a high bar for sci-fi adaptations rooted in realism and wit. The Ryan Gosling starrer needs a 35% jump only to beat the domestic haul of The Martian and emerge as the top-grossing Andy Weir film domestically. Since Project Hail Mary is tracking to earn between $274 million and $310 million in North America, it will soon surpass The Martian’s domestic haul.
