Imagine Mr. Bean visiting a SpaceX launch — and while everyone else is there to see history, he’s just desperately looking for hot water for his cup noodles. In the chaos, he stumbles into the wrong door, ends up on the rocket… and accidentally blasts off to the Moon.
The story starts as pure slapstick — full of coincidences, goofy mishaps, and that “how is this even possible?” energy. But once on the Moon, one clumsy mistake turns the mission deadly serious. In the end, our noodle-obsessed stowaway has to make the ultimate sacrifice, leaving behind one final symbol: the last noodle.

Still writing it, but I’m aiming for Mr. Bean meets Gravity — absurd comedy with a surprising emotional punch.
Would you watch a tragicomedy set in space about instant noodles?

This is an interesting idea, but it requires a large budget to be realized in a movie.

Projects with a low budget are the best way to develop creativity. The boundaries of possibilities help the mind find new, unconventional solutions.

Unique concept, Lokakshith Roy! I'd definitely watch it. You could put "It's Mr. Bean meets Gravity" in your pitch.

Lokakshith Roy , I love the idea. When it comes out I will be Ramen as fast as I can to see it.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone!
Note: Ever since I added the sci-fi elements, the budget has shot up—something producers usually dislike for a comedy project. So I honestly doubt it’ll ever make it to the big screen. To really work, it would need the original Rowan Atkinson to bring the character to life. At best, it might find a home as a lower-budget animated film.

You're welcome, Lokakshith Roy. You could write The Last Noodle as a big-budget script. If you want to write it as a low-budget or mid-budget script, you could:
Make the script a contained script (maybe 1-3 locations on the spaceship).
Make the script about the mishaps as the stowaway looks for the noodles and his relationship(s) with another character(s) on board, and take out the mission on the moon.
Don't show the entire alien that comes on board -- if there is one -- until later in the movie like Jaws did.
