Julia Roberts and Mahershala Ali experience big-time tensions while the world devolves around them in the latest trailer for Leave the World Behind.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The full Leave the World Behind trailer is released, revealing more details of the film’s post-apocalyptic landscape. Based on the bestselling Rumaan Alam novel of the same name, Leave the World Behind tells the story of two couples who, while on a weekend vacation, transition unexpectedly from strangers to collaborators in surviving a mysterious global apocalypse.
Leave The World Behind Will Straddle Family Drama With Sci-Fi Apocalypse Unlike the previously released Leave the World Behind teaser trailer, the full trailer de-emphasizes the apocalypse itself. In the first trailer, Ali and Herrold’s G.H. and Ruth are mere messengers of bad news, telling Amanda and Clay about the apocalypse to come. In this newest one, G.H. and Ruth start more unassuming, kindly alerting the other couple to a mix-up with their vacation house before the apocalypse erupts.
This trailer gives more space to showing the dynamic between the two couples at the heart of the movie. Cyber-attacks and unexplained disasters are not the only obstacle in Leave the World Behind. Rather, this trailer represents the underlying conflict when one couple mistrusts the other, and when strangers attempt to cohabit. The film does have science-fiction themes, but it also finds frictions in very human, interpersonal strife.
Leave the World Behind is directed by Mr. Robot creator Sam Esmail. This is a great sign for the Netflix movie's success, as that series was known for exploring complex character dynamics – between, for example, Darlene and Elliot, or Elliot and his late father – within a futuristic doomsday landscape. If the latest trailer is any indication, Esmail’s Leave the World Behind adaptation will once again blend those two realities well.
