"It's a PC, Not a Mac" Project Hail Mary Directors on Making a Hard Sci-Fi Blockbuster | SDCC 2025

Project Hail Mary may not be hitting theaters until 2026, but famed directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, and writer Drew Goddard sat down with IGN at our SDCC studio to chat about the film, Rocky, and the the joys and difficulties of making an adaptation of a beloved story. We also chat about how adapting a book by Andy Weir was different with Ridley Scott on The Martian than with Phil Lord and Chris Miller on Project Hail Mary, keeping the rough edges in and the hard work of getting practical sets, production design and visual effects to make an alien without a face come to life.Presented by FX’s Alien: Earth.
