Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Netflix's apocalyptic movie, Leave the World Behind, was their most-watched title in the second half of 2023. Written and directed by Mr. Robot creator Sam Esmail, based on the novel by Rumaan Alan, the apocalyptic thriller film follows a family's getaway to a luxurious rental home, which takes an ominous turn when a cyberattack knocks out all communications, and two strangers arrive at their door.
Why Leave The World Behind Was So Popular Close Leave the World Behind's success and popularity was something of a surprise when it was released on Netflix in December 2023. It premiered at the AFI Fest in October 2023 and was released in select theaters the following month, and Leave the World Behind's reviews praised its outstanding performances and captivating premise, even though the film unfolds at a slow pace and its themes are relatively simplistic.
Leave the World Behind is also from star producers, Barack and Michelle Obama, who produced through their High Ground Productions banner.
