Lego Project Hail Mary Release Date, Price and Pre-Order Revealed as Fans Rush to Secure the Limited Set

LEGO has unveiled a surprise licensed release tied to one of the most anticipated science fiction films of 2026, with the LEGO Project Hail Mary set now confirmed for release and pre-order. The announcement has quickly drawn attention from collectors and sci-fi fans alike, as the brick-built model brings Andy Weir's bestselling novel to life ahead of its big-screen adaptation starring Ryan Gosling. With pre-orders already open, interest in the limited set has surged among Lego Icons collectors and fans of space-themed builds.

What LEGO Has Announced

The LEGO Group confirmed it will release a new LEGO Icons Project Hail Mary set inspired by the upcoming film adaptation of Andy Weir's novel Project Hail Mary. The set is designed as a display model rather than a play set, aligning with Lego's recent focus on adult collectors and detailed spacecraft builds.

'Enjoy a creative journey as you craft each detail of this micro-scale replica that captures the design of the iconic interstellar spacecraft,' LEGO wrote on the Project Hail Mary Set description.

The model centres on the Hail Mary spacecraft, the long-range vessel featured in the story, which follows an astronaut sent on a high-risk mission to uncover why stars across the universe, including the Sun, are dimming. The announcement marks one of LEGO's more unexpected licensed collaborations in the science fiction space.

LEGO Project Hail Mary Release Date, Price and Pre-Order Details

LEGO has confirmed that the LEGO Project Hail Mary set will be released on 1 March. The set carries a retail price of $99.99 in the US and £99.99 in the UK. The set is available to pre-order now through official LEGO retail channels and selected partners.

The confirmation of the release date, price and pre-order options has prompted a rapid response from fans, with early demand suggesting strong interest in the set ahead of its official launch. The combination of a popular source novel, a high-profile film adaptation and LEGO's Icons branding has positioned the set as a likely draw for both collectors and science fiction enthusiasts.

What Is Included in the LEGO Project Hail Mary Set?

The 830-piece set features a buildable version of the Hail Mary spacecraft mounted on a display stand. The model includes a rotating mechanism and a moving crew module designed to reflect the ship's centrifugal gravity system in the story.

The display base also incorporates a detachable vignette with a mini-figure of Ryland Grace, portrayed by Ryan Gosling in the film, alongside a brick-built representation of the alien character Rocky. These elements are intended to provide a visual reference to key aspects of the film's narrative while keeping the focus on the spacecraft as the centrepiece.

Film Context and Growing Interest in Project Hail Mary

Project Hail Mary is based on Andy Weir's novel, which gained a strong following after the success of The Martian. The film adaptation, scheduled for release in 2026, stars Ryan Gosling as an astronaut tasked with a mission that could determine the future of humanity.

The film's growing profile has contributed to heightened interest in related merchandise, with the LEGO Project Hail Mary set emerging as one of the earliest tie-ins revealed ahead of the film's release.
