A Bit More Detail

The film is produced by Amazon MGM Studios, with theatrical distribution planned rather than a straight-to-streaming debut, which is why the single key date to remember is March 20, 2026. Multiple industry and news sites list that same date, and it’s been confirmed in official promotional materials and coverage.

Some regions get it slightly earlier in the week (for example, a few international territories list March 18–19, 2026), but the main answer to “when does Project Hail Mary come out” is that it hits cinemas worldwide around March 20, 2026, with the U.S. wide release on that day.
