The film is distributed through Netflix, and is expected to drop on the platform on March 1st.Adam Sandler plays Jakub Procházka, the titular Czech spaceman, who is six months into an eight-month long solo mission to explore a mysterious cloud of "intergalactic dust" between Earth and Venus that mysteriously makes the sky purple. However, while stuck in space, Jakub quickly comes to realize that the life — and wife (Carey Mulligan) — he left behind on Earth won't be there when he gets back. Little does he know, he's picked up a stowaway in HanuÅ¡ (Paul Dano), a milennia-old alien in the form of a freakishly large spider who is determined to help Jakub sort through his emotional problems before it is too late.Previews: Official First Look, Official Trailer | |

Ambiguous Situation | |
| Spaceman (2024) / int_1f6983f7 | comment |
Ambiguous Situation: Is Hanuš a real, literal alien creature who actually found a kindred spirit in Jakub, or is he meant to be a figment of imagination from Jakub's mind? While the source material and the film director stated that Hanuš is real, it is not so clear-cut on how the film adaptation presented it. Unlike the source material, no one besides Jakub acknowledges Hanuš' existence, although in part due to communications between the space station and earth conveniently broken down most of the time. Besides the initial fright, Jakub doesn't seem overwhelmed by the presence of an intelligent, talking extraterrestrial lifeform and treated him like as if a human stranger had stumbled into his home. Everything Hanuš said and done could easily be interpreted as Jakub's self-reflection while in isolation. Hanuš' initial departure could be seen as Jakub being conscious of his own self-inflicted pain for the first time, while Hanuš' eventual death could be seen as Jakub peacefully acknowledging his own guilt which in turn ended his self-reflection. | |

Chekhov's Gun: Jakub tries to uses the ship's decontaminant spray on the giant spider who invaded his ship. In the climax, he uses another canister in a vain attempt to destroy the Gorompeds who were infecting his spider buddy. | |

Fake Memories: Played With. Using Hanuš' telepathy, Jakub lives through the moment where Lenka suffered her miscarriage. Even though he wasn't there in person to witness the event, Hanuš explains that his understanding of the situation along with how he perceived Lenka's emotions helped to create that memory for them to live through. | |

You Never Asked: Played for Drama. Hanuš returns to the ship only to reveal that he's been slowly dying from the Gorompeds invading his body. After Jakub asks why he never told him, the spider sincerely replies that the astronaut never bothered to ask about him. This is a major stepping stone in Jakub's Jerkass Realization. | |

The Needs of the Many | |

The Needs of the Many: The president of the Czech Space Station purposefully withheld Lenka's last message to Jakub of leaving him stating that his mental health can be severely impacted if he heard the news. Not only would his mental health and life be in jeopardy but also the entire mission and everything he and the team worked hard to achieve. | |

Tragic Stillbirth: Lenka was revealed to have suffered a miscarriage while Jakub was busy with astronaut training. His cold negligence and willingness to distance himself from her during her hour of need would only create resentment in the would-be mother. | |

Hates Being Touched | |
| Spaceman (2024) / int_a6ff7243 | comment |
Hates Being Touched: While normally a friendly spider, Hanuš makes it clear that his tribe doesn't approve of physical touch and is prone to aggression when Jakub tries to touch him. But as the bond between them grows, the spider starts to become more accepting of the skinny human's physical hugs. | |

He also mentions that his dad was a communist who organized torture sessions against potential traitors.
