Film insights
Roshan told Gosling, 'It's an intimate story about friendship'
Roshan told Gosling, "It is incredible that on the surface it is a film about sci-fi, but underneath it all, it is really such an intimate story about this friendship." To which Gosling jokingly replied, "Remake it!" In Project Hail Mary, Gosling plays Ryland Grace, an unlikely hero who finds solace in an alien named Rocky during his space mission. The character of Rocky is voiced by James Ortiz and becomes crucial to Ryland's mission and sanity.
Alien connection
'We are perhaps the only 2 actors who have...'
Roshan then drew a parallel between Gosling's Project Hail Mary and his own film Koi... Mil Gaya. He said, "We are perhaps the only two actors who have this close friendship with these cute little aliens. You have Rocky, and I have Jadoo." Gosling responded by asking more about Jadoo, and Roshan described him as someone he would want to hug and protect.
Film crossover
'Yes! We are a part of space alien friendship club'
The conversation took an interesting turn when Gosling suggested they should remake each other's films. Roshan agreed and said, "Yes! We are a part of this very exclusive, professional, space alien friendship club, and we have to do something about that!" To which Gosling replied with a laugh, "Shared universe, maybe a sequel!" Project Hail Mary is based on Andy Weir's bestselling novel of the same name and will be released in India on Thursday, March 26.
