Ryan Gosling has found another strong box office foothold in India, and Project Hail Mary is proving it has far more than opening weekend curiosity on its side. At a time when Hollywood originals often fade quickly after their initial rush, the sci-fi drama has stayed firmly in the race, adding solid numbers in its fourth weekend and continuing one of the more impressive runs for an international title this year.
A Fourth Weekend Push Keeps The Film Near A Major Milestone
The film collected Rs 1 crore on Friday, Rs 2.25 crore on Saturday, and Rs 2.50 crore on Sunday in its fourth weekend, taking its three-day total to Rs 5.75 crore gross. With that, Project Hail Mary reached 79.70 crore gross in India, putting it within striking distance of the Rs 80 crore mark.
That total is significant for a non-franchise Hollywood release in India, where established brands usually dominate theatrical business. The film’s staying power has become its biggest story, with audiences continuing to turn up well beyond the launch frame. Its fourth weekend haul also reinforces the strength of word of mouth, especially for a science fiction title that relies more on concept and emotional pull than franchise recognition.

Why The Andy Weir Adaptation Connected In India
Directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, Project Hail Mary adapts Andy Weir’s novel into a star-led survival drama set against a vast sci-fi canvas. Gosling leads the film as Ryland Grace, a schoolteacher who wakes up alone aboard a spacecraft with no memory of how he got there, only to realise he is carrying the burden of a mission with extraordinary stakes.
That blend of mystery, humour, and emotional urgency worked strongly with Indian audiences, helping the film sustain a blockbuster theatrical run in the market. Just as importantly, the India performance has added fresh weight to Gosling’s standing as a theatrical draw at a moment when original big-screen films need stars who can push them beyond opening weekend.
India’S Response Adds Fresh Heat To Gosling’S Theatrical Streak
The success of Project Hail Mary fits neatly into a striking recent chapter in Gosling’s career, one shaped by star-led films with very different energies. In 2024, he headlined The Fall Guy opposite Emily Blunt, while 2023 saw him turn Barbie into a global pop culture event with his widely celebrated performance as Ken in Greta Gerwig’s blockbuster. Before that, he appeared in Netflix’s 2022 action thriller The Gray Man alongside Chris Evans and Ana de Armas.
As of April 2026, Project Hail Mary stands as Gosling’s latest theatrical release and another reminder of his range across comedy, action, and emotionally grounded spectacle. His next confirmed film is Star Wars: Starfighter, listed for 2027, which keeps him firmly in the lane of large-scale event cinema even as he continues to choose projects built around distinct characters rather than familiar repetition.
