From somewhere in cyberspace so don't blame me if it's not true.

"Back in March, news broke that an untitled Ridley Scott film would open in March 2016. Rumors quickly suggested that film would be Prometheus 2, especially since the script for that was reportedly done. Well, the movie in that slot has now been moved up, to November 25, 2015. And it’s not Prometheus 2. It’s better. It’s Scott’s adaptation of the Andy Weir book The Martian, with Matt Damon reportedly set to star.

Box Office Mojo reported the date change on The Martian movie. The current adaptation was written by Drew Goddard, who was originally going to direct. He left the project some months ago, so there’s no word if Scott will shoot Goddard’s screenplay."
