フィル・ロードとクリス・ミラーが手掛ける『プロジェクト・ヘイル・メリー』、リリースからほぼ1年を残して重要な節目を達成

Absolutely — Project Hail Mary is off to an extraordinary start, and the 400 million view milestone for its trailer is nothing short of historic.

To break it down:

• 400 million views in just one week — that’s an unprecedented achievement, especially for an original film (not a sequel, reboot, or franchise entry).
• First original film trailer to break this record — a major feat in an era where audiences often gravitate toward established IPs. This shows that strong storytelling, a compelling premise, and a passionate fanbase can still drive massive attention.
• Phil Lord and Chris Miller’s direction, combined with Andy Weir’s breakout novel (which fans loved for its science-heavy, emotionally rich narrative), has clearly struck a chord.
• Ryan Gosling’s star power — already a favorite among audiences and critics alike — is clearly a major draw, but it’s the film’s unique blend of hard sci-fi, human drama, and high-stakes adventure that’s keeping people talking.

It’s even more impressive when you consider that this is not a franchise launch, but a standalone story about a lone astronaut (Gosling) on a desperate mission to save Earth from an extinction-level threat, aided by a mysterious alien companion (Sandra Hüller). The story’s emotional core, combined with real science (and a charmingly oddball alien named Rocky), has clearly resonated globally.

And the fact that Amazon MGM Studios is investing heavily in a film that’s not based on a pre-existing IP — and already pulling in record-breaking viewership — suggests that original, intelligent sci-fi might be making a powerful comeback.

With the team headed to San Diego Comic-Con to celebrate, fans can expect major reveals — maybe even a first look at a new scene, character details, or a teaser for the film’s iconic "I’m not an engineer" moment.

Verdict: Project Hail Mary isn’t just a movie in the making — it’s already becoming a cultural moment.

Mark your calendars: March 20, 2026, might just be the most anticipated movie release in years. 🚀✨
