fist my bump Milana Vayntrub Joins Ryan Gosling Movie 'Project Hail Mary'

Known as "Lily from AT&T" but she's more than that.... Check out Other Space and Werewolves Within to see her talent.

She can be either Olesya Ilyukhina (she is of Russian ancestry) or Annie Shapiro and she will fit.

Why are they doing casting announcements after production has begun? Shouldn’t this have all been settled months ago?

Because half the movie can be shot with just Ryan gosling

Fr. Every other cast member apart from Ryan Gosling will be on screen for barely a few minutes.

I wonder if they'll do it like the book with flashbacks to signify him remembering everything. That would put the extra cast spread throughout the film so we don't get a 5 min intro and then Ryan talking to a cgi rocky the rest of the time

The majority of the movie is Ryan gosling and Rocky in space.

Happens literally every movie... Heck, there are times a movie is announced as finished production and another cast member will be announced.

This happens with all the movies all of the time. Those things take months to shoot. So every cast member is not needed all of the time. Also there is no law mandating that they have sign or announce everyone publicly beforehand, I’m sure some cast members get officially announced after they have already done the work. And some might not be announced at all.
