“Project Hail Mary” hits theaters on March 20. With it, Lord and Miller are helming their first film since 2014’s “22 Jump Street” (they’ve otherwise kept busy by producing Sony Animation’s “Spider-Verse” trilogy, “Cocaine Bear,” “The Mitchells vs. the Machines” and more).

Comic-Con got a lot of Ryan and a little bit of Rocky at a panel on “Project: Hail Mary,” the forthcoming film that's equal parts space adventure, real-science deep-dive, broad comedy and relationship drama.
