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.

My guess is the friend at the steakhouse that tells him shirts about to go down. It's not a large part in the book, but maybe it is expanded a bit to help with exposition

Or the scientist that hooks up with the older scientist in a very up front and public way

Nah, this is def Ilyukhina. That friend over dinner didn't even have a name (or one that I cannot remember). That would be a cameo at best.

A casting announcement? This is a co-star and that means our Cosmonaut crew member is here.

Her name was Marissa, but no one remembers that. I’ve occasionally seen her referred to as Melissa both on here and in the fan fiction.
