Sam Esmail's new psychological thriller hits Netflix in December.
The Big Picture The end is nigh for Julia Roberts and her family in the first trailer for writer/director Sam Esmail's new psychological thriller Leave the World Behind. An adaptation of Rumaan Alam's 2020 novel of the same name, it follows a family on vacation in Long Island when they are suddenly confronted by two strangers informing them of a mysterious blackout. The situation quickly worsens as the world begins to crumble, leaving the two families to try and survive together.
Everything kicks off when Amanda and her husband Clay open their doors to see G. H. and his wife Ruth . G. H. is the wealthy owner of the Airbnb where Amanda and her family are staying, and he came bearing a warning for them about the blackouts. He claims that there's something more to the outages as he could tell through changes in the "patterns of the world." Despite their apparent distrust, G. H.
Leave the World Behind tackles not just the apocalypse but prejudice as the two very different families are forced together despite the reservations Amanda and Clay have about G. H. and Ruth. Amid all that, however, are some horrifying sights as the world falls apart in this slow-burn thriller including what appears to be a rain of blood from a singular spot in the sky and the complete disruption of nature on Earth.
