Project Hail Mary is getting its own LEGO set

<p>The upcoming science fiction film Project Hail Mary <a data-i13n="elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:LEGO;elmt:;cpos:1;pos:1" href="https://shopping.yahoo.com/rdlw?merchantId=70bceed8-b1ae-4af0-9fde-faa9258e1bc8&amp;siteId=us-engadget&amp;pageId=1p-autolink&amp;contentUuid=1c0a7c33-20d2-47bd-8cbe-d19f8121196c&amp;featureId=text-link&amp;merchantName=LEGO&amp;linkText=is+getting+a+LEGO+set&amp;custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsImxhbmRpbmdVcmwiOiJodHRwczovL3d3dy5sZWdvLmNvbS9lbi11cy9wcm9kdWN0L3Byb2plY3QtaGFpbC1tYXJ5LTExMzg5IiwiY29udGVudFV1aWQiOiIxYzBhN2MzMy0yMGQyLTQ3YmQtOGNiZS1kMTlmODEyMTE5NmMiLCJvcmlnaW5hbFVybCI6Imh0dHBzOi8vd3d3LmxlZ28uY29tL2VuLXVzL3Byb2R1Y3QvcHJvamVjdC1oYWlsLW1hcnktMTEzODkifQ&amp;signature=AQAAAeoifCU13vME3FZUewLHLltlZptNqaSCHgVjWhs9e0_1&amp;gcReferrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lego.com%2Fen-us%2Fproduct%2Fproject-hail-mary-11389" class="rapid-with-clickid" data-original-link="https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/project-hail-mary-11389">is getting a LEGO set[/url]. This is fascinating because LEGO typically makes sets based on long-standing franchises like Star Wars and Harry Potter. Project Hail Mary doesn't even <a data-i13n="cpos:2;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/entertainment/tv-movies/project-hail-mary-keeps-us-intrigued-in-a-second-trailer-151108278.html">hit theaters until March 20[/url].</p>
<p>It's not an entirely new IP. The movie is based on a 2021 book written by Andy Weir, the same author behind The Martian. It's cool to see a LEGO set based on something more contemporary than its usual fare.</p> <span id="end-legacy-contents"></span>
<p>The 830-piece set looks pretty nifty. It includes a replica of The Hail Mary spaceship in all of its glory, complete with minifigures of teacher-turned-astronaut Ryland Grace and his ultra-cute alien buddy that the whole world will likely fall in love with once the film hits.</p>

<p>The set also comes with a functional display stand and a crank that moves the components around to simulate centrifugal gravity. The minifigures can even be arranged to recreate an iconic scene from the book and, likely, the movie.</p>
<p>LEGO's Project Hail Mary set is available for preorder right now and costs $100. It ships on March 1, giving fans around 20 days to build it before the movie hits theaters.</p>

<p>The film involves a reluctant astronaut attempting to solve a mystery as to why the sun is dying. It stars Ryan Gosling and is directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, the duo behind the Spiderverse films and, incidentally, The LEGO Movie.</p>
