Even wildly accomplished industry icons like Julia Roberts and Mahershala Ali learn something new and/or push themselves further with each and every project, and that was certainly the case on the set of their new Netflix movie, Leave the World Behind. The movie is an adaptation of the Rumaan Alam novel starring Roberts and Ethan Hawke as Amanda and Clay. They opt to rent a house out on Long Island and take their two kids for a little getaway. One night, there’s a knock at the door. It’s Mahershala Ali’s GH and his daughter Ruth (Myha’la). They claim they own the house and had to return due to a blackout in the city. All living under the same roof, this group of strangers is challenged to figure out how much they can trust one another while a potentially catastrophic disaster develops. With Leave the World Behind arriving on Netflix on December 8th, I got the chance to have a brief chat with Roberts and Ali about their experience working together as scene partners, what it was like doing that unforgettable dance scene, and the Leave the World Behind co-star they’d trust the most in a disaster movie scenario. Check it all out in this Leave the World Behind interview. For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL
