Leave the World Behind is the latest apocalyptic thriller film based on the 2020 novel of the same name. It centers around Amanda and Clay Sandford, a couple who rent a house on Long Island for a family vacation with their teens, Archie and Rose.
That’s when their happy rental home takes an unexpected turn when a cyberattack hits their devices, and two strangers appear at their doorstep. The film’s premise takes inspiration from great reads. It invites audiences into a gripping narrative enriched by stellar performances from Julia Roberts, Ethan Hawke, Mahershala Ali, and others.
The film not only promises a thriller experience on screen but will take you on a diverse musical journey as well. The hip-hop beats harmonize with a TV theme in the film. So, looks like it’s the ultimate soundtrack playlist that’s going to survive at the end of the world. Check every song featured in the Julia Roberts starrer movie.
