Lonely Planet is directed by Susannah Grant, and is Grant’s second time directing a feature film following 2006’s Catch and Release. She also co-created and served as a showrunner on Netflix’s Unbelievable, which was released in 2019 and stars Toni Collette, Merritt Wever, and Kaitlyn Dever.
“A reclusive novelist arrives at a prestigious writer’s retreat in Morocco, hoping the remote setting will unlock her writer’s block,” reads the film’s official synopsis. “While there, she meets a young man — what starts as an acquaintanceship evolves into an intoxicating, life-altering love affair.”
Grant produces the new Netflix movie alongside Liza Chasin and Sarah Timberman. Brendan Ferguson, Corinne Weber, and Margaret Chernin serve as executive producers.
