Space missions and marriage drama combine in Spaceman, the upcoming film from Johan Renck (Chernobyl).

Spaceman stars Adam Sandler as Jakub, an astronaut on solitary research to the edges of the solar system. Six months in, he begins to worry that his relationship with his wife Lenka (Maestro's Carey Mulligan) won't be waiting for him on his return.

Enter Hanuš (voiced by Dumb Money's Paul Dano), a giant spider creature from the dawn of time, who has stowed away on Jakub's ship. Together, the two endeavor to sort through Jakub's memories and figure out how he can reconcile with Lenka. Trippy space walks ensue.

Spaceman hits Netflix March 1.
