Alexander Ludwig from Heels and Vikings stars in the MGM+ adaptation of sci-fi classic Earth Abides filming in Vancouver this Spring.
Earth Abides follows Ish (Alexander Ludwig), a brilliant but solitary young geologist living a semi-isolated life. who awakens from a coma only to find that there is no one left alive but him.
A plague of unprecedented virulence has swept the globe — and yes, there are a few scattered survivors, but there are no rules. His journey is to learn the difference between sanctuary and survival, and to open his heart to love, if he is to find meaning in his life after the great machine of civilization has broken down.
It’s very special to reintroduce Earth Abides to fans of George Stewart’s seminal work of science fiction, as well as to a new generation. The story’s messages of humanity, hope and compassion are as relevant today as they were nearly a century ago.” — MGM+ head Michael Wright said in a statement.
