Sony Pictures: Project Hail Mary

Starring Ryan Gosling as the beloved Ryland Grace (humanity’s last chance at survival), the film adaptation of Andy Weir’s best-selling sci-fi novel, Project Hail Mary, is now available for all to enjoy. And to celebrate its theatrical release, JACK ARTS teamed up with Sony Pictures to design and build an interstellar-esque installation fit for fans to explore in the comfort of a bookshop.

Surrounded by books in Foyles on Charing Cross Road, this unique module of Ryland Grace’s spaceship has a window for readers and shoppers to peer through as well as a hatch to enter the “spaceship”. Once inside, explorers will find a big lightbox wall and a control panel in front of the chair; and when the intercom button is pressed, a message from Rocky is patched through.

JACK ARTS and our Creative Studio worked closely with Foyles and Sony Pictures to ensure this intergalactic installation was big and interactive enough for dreams of being an astronaut, photo moments, and the curious minds among us. Here is how JACK ARTS’ sketch became a reality…
