Greta Lee and Andrew Scott to Star in Sci-Fi Romance My Notes on Mars

In what promises to be an exciting cinematic venture, Past Lives star Greta Lee and All of Us Strangers actor Andrew Scott are set to lead the upcoming sci-fi romance My Notes on Mars. This marks the English-language debut of Hungarian filmmaker Lili Horvát, known for her critically acclaimed work on Preparations to Be Together for an Unknown Period of Time.

According to Deadline, Lee and Scott have signed on for this intriguing project, which will begin filming early next year in Budapest and Vienna. The film is written by Horvát herself, adding to the anticipation surrounding its release.

The plot of My Notes on Mars is already stirring curiosity. The story centers around Margot, played by Greta Lee, a brilliant scientist trapped in a troubled marriage. During a hike with her husband, Sam (played by Andrew Scott), and their friends, Margot mysteriously disappears. Weeks later, she astonishingly reappears on the day of her own memorial service. However, Margot is not the same person she was before the accident, leading Sam to see this as a second chance for their relationship.

Horvát has described the film as “a story about the labyrinthine human psyche, about the ever-changing faces of love.” She expressed her fascination with characters who make surprising, unconventional choices, both personally and professionally. Horvát sees this quality reflected in both Lee and Scott, making them perfect for the roles of Margot and Sam Fogel.

With Horvát’s unique storytelling and the powerhouse duo of Lee and Scott, My Notes on Mars is shaping up to be a must-watch. As fans eagerly await more details, one thing is certain: this film has all the ingredients to become a standout in the genre.
