Netflix has shared a teaser trailer for the new film Leave the World Behind, featuring Julia Roberts. The film will mark Roberts’ first project since the romantic-comedy Ticket to Paradise (2022) co-starring George Clooney.

Leave the World Behind follows Amanda (Roberts) and Clay (Ethan Hawke), a couple whose vacation with their children (Charlie Evans, Farrah Mackenzie) is interrupted by an impending apocalypse. Mahershala Ali, Myha’la Herrold and Kevin Bacon also star in the film.

Based on the Rumaan Alam novel of the same name, the film adaptation of Leave the World Behind is written and directed by ‘Mr. Robot’ creator Sam Esmail and executive produced by Alam, Barack and Michelle Obama, Tonia Davis, Daniel M. Stillman and Nick Krishnamurthy.
