Set to beat Moana worldwide
According to the report, the Ryan Gosling starrer movie is on track to beat Moana at the worldwide box office. Moana is the 2016 Disney film, which is not considered a direct adaptation of a specific book, fairy tale, or previous movie. However, it was heavily inspired by Polynesian mythology, culture, and history. Moana, featuring Dwayne Johnson‘s voice as Maui, the demigod, collected $643.4 million at the worldwide box office in its theatrical run.
Project Hail Mary is less than $5 million away from surpassing Moana’s global haul. This shows the excellent performance of the Ryan Gosling starrer at the box office. Directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the film follows a science teacher who wakes up alone on a spaceship. As his memory returns, he uncovers a mission to stop a mysterious substance that is killing Earth’s sun, and that an unexpected friendship may be the key. Project Hail Mary was released on March 20.
