SDCC Highlight: Maude Garrett’s Audible Panel with Andy Weir
Did you miss SDCC?
Our very own Maude Garrett had the best time mauderating with Audible for Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman and Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir.
For Maude, it was a dream come true to be at SDCC talking about her love of books, but more importantly, her love for sci-fi and one of her favourite authors, including Matt Dinniman. The hype from SDCC and Maude’s interview with Andy Weir has garnered new fans of the source material and will likely be a hit for Amazon, MGM Studios, and Sony Pictures Entertainment.
Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir has been one of Maude Garrett’s favourite novels to read with our book club. When Maude interviewed Weir for MBC, he revealed that a film adaptation of the famous sci-fi novel was in the works.
One year later, the teaser trailer is one of the most watched trailers about a sci-fi adaptation. Ryan Gosling stars in Project Hail Mary and has been impressed by how well-received that first trailer was.
The trailer for the upcoming movie Project Hail Mary has broken the record for the most views in its first week for an original, non-sequel, non-remake movie trailer. The trailer, released on June 30, 2025, reached over 400 million views across various social media platforms, according to Amazon MGM Studios
The trailer broke the record for the most views in its first week for an original, non-sequel, non-remake movie trailer. That’s the power of science fiction, Ryan Gosling, and of course, Andy Weir. The trailer reached over 400 million views across various social media platforms.
Andy Weir has been an MBC favourite after reading The Martian, Project Hail Mary and Artemis.
