Netflix’s Lonely Planet, an upcoming romantic drama starring Laura Dern and Liam Hemsworth, has released its official trailer.
Lonely Planet follows Katherine (Dern), a reclusive novelist, who develops an affair with a younger man, Owen (Hemsworth), while attending a writer’s retreat in Morocco. Susannah Grant created and directed the film and served as an executive producer on Apple TV+’s Lessons in Chemistry.
Owen is seen being estranged from his fiancée while drawn to Katherine, and their bond irrevocably alters the trajectory of their lives. Katherine also discusses why she values travel, with Morocco as a crucial backdrop for the story.
What does the Trailer Say About The Movie?
The trailer for Lonely Planet begins with a sense of exhilarating promise and possibilities as Katherine arrives at the writer’s retreat in Morocco and looks about in astonishment.
The sensation of great possibility persists as Sarah and Owen meet and explore several areas in Morocco, gradually sharing more information about their personal lives. The characters’ final romance appears to be a long burn rather than a sudden event.
Owen’s frustration with his fiancée is briefly portrayed in the trailer, while most of the footage focuses on the emotionally close bond he slowly builds with Katherine.
While there may be surprises and explosive drama involving Owen and his girlfriend, Lonely Planet focuses on a thoughtful and uplifting examination of how two lonely people, Katherine and Owen, get exactly what they need. This links with Katherine’s point regarding each individual’s little place in the greater universe.
Our Take on the Trailer Explained
Lonely Planet is a fascinating picture for Dern and Hemsworth, particularly given their previous roles.
Dern’s role as divorce lawyer, Nora Fanshaw, in Marriage Story earned her an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. At the same time, Hemsworth has been replaced as Geralt of Rivia in The Witcher.
Lonely Planet’s ostensibly hopeful romance story starkly contrasts Marriage Story’s tension and The Witcher’s dark fantasy, allowing Dern and Hemsworth to exhibit their talents further. The emphasis on genuine romance over manufactured drama is also encouraging, making Lonely Planet a Netflix film worth seeing.
