Scott announced after the release of the movie in cinemas that Wadi Rum should be the eighth wonder of the world.
The Jordan Tourism Board (JTB) produced the video and posted it on its Facebook page (Visit Jordan) and YouTube channel earlier this month where it has been viewed, shared and liked extensively.
It shows Wadi Rum, also known as the Valley of the Moon, as if it were Mars, with a spaceship landing in the desert carrying two passengers dressed like astronauts.
The Martian, starring Matt Damon, was released in theatres in September this year and has so far made around $203 million in the US box office and some $262 million internationally.
