Ryan Gosling didn’t set off on his latest space odyssey in just a boring astronaut suit. The 45-year-old star of "Project Hail Mary" credits his kids — and inspiration from Val Kilmer — for his stylish astro-nerd look in the sci-fi film. He sat down at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory to speak with AP entertainment journalist Leslie Ambriz alongside co-star Sandra Hüller, directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, writer Drew Goddard and book author Andy Weir. In the movie, opening Friday in U.S. theatres, Gosling portrays a science teacher sent on a mission to save Earth from a dying sun. #ryangosling #movies #projecthailmary
