Seeking a Friend for the end of the world

Description

It's an odd pairing, but it really works: Keira Knightley (Atonement) and Steve Carell (The 40 Year Old Virgin) star as neighbours who become unlikely friends and allies as the end of the world (in the form of a 72-mile-wide asteroid named Matilda) approaches.

 

With only days to go until the end of everything, they embark on a road trip to try to find Carell's lost love, watching as the world goes mad around them. A very funny, very likeable comedy ensues.

 

“Scafaria and her two likeable leads have made a witty, warm-hearted and impressively original addition to the rom-com ranks” Stephen Dalton, The Hollywood Reporter
