Laura Dern & Liam Hemsworth Found More Than Just a Connection in Lonely Planet
In an era where romantic dramas have become a rare gem amid the saturation of IP-driven franchises and action-packed blockbusters, films like Lonely Planet remind us there are still powerfully heartfelt stories out there. This Netflix feature, written and directed by Susannah Grant (Erin Brockovich) and starring Laura Dern and Liam Hemsworth, stands out as more than just another love story on streaming. It might seem like The Idea of You or A Family Affair on the surface, but Lonely Planet delves deeper into the heart of its characters, offering a rich, nuanced portrayal of romance that feels both timeless and relevant. At the heart of the film lies the undeniable chemistry between its leads, who open up to Collider about their characters’ vulnerabilities and the powerful bond they forged while filming in the remote landscapes of Morocco.
