    Laura Dern and Liam Hemsworth Star in New Romance ‘Lonely Planet’

    We’re listening.

Prepare for swooning. Laura Dern and Liam Hemsworth are set to star in Lonely Planet, written, produced and directed by Susannah Grant. Details are scant, but here’s what we can tell you: It’s a love story and its set in Morocco. 

Some may consider Dern and Hemsworth an unexpected on screen duo. Academy Award–winning Dern oozes sophistication and has a lengthy career as a scene stealer in everything from Jurassic Park to Marriage Story. Hemsworth is a reserved millennial hunk who made a name for himself in the Hunger Games franchise as well as in films like Poker Face and Arkansas. But if anyone can make this pairing work, it’s Grant, who’s been at the helm of dramas like Unbelievable, Confirmation and Erin Brockovich, as well as rom-coms like Ever After and Catch and Release.

So, yeah, we definitely trust her with a sun-drenched love story starring two very different Hollywood actors. We’ll bring the sunscreen if Hemsworth brings the Australian accent.
